When a local party-rental company says yes to a last-minute request from law enforcement and keeps showing up for five straight years, that’s a story worth reading. The Jump Off, a family-owned inflatable and party rental business based in Covington, Louisiana, is marking half a decade of supplying bounce houses, obstacle courses, and water slides for the St. Tammany Parish Sheriff’s Office Night Out Against Crime—a milestone that underscores the company’s deep roots in Northshore community life.
At the October 6, 2026, Night Out Against Crime held in Bush, Louisiana, The Jump Off set up a castle combo with slide, with a St. Tammany Parish Sheriff’s Office vehicle visible behind it. That event represented the company’s fifth consecutive year backing the Sheriff’s outreach effort.
For Woodlake Elementary’s water day on May 6, 2026, the company installed four inflatable water slides—Titanium, Tiki Plunge, Purple Hurricane, and Red Sea Rush—turning a gravel-and-sand play area into a splash zone using blue tarps as a base.

The Jump Off celebrates five years supporting local law enforcement and school events across Louisiana’s Northshore.

COVINGTON, LA, UNITED STATES, November 9, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — The Jump Off, a family-owned inflatable and party rental company based in Covington, Louisiana, is celebrating five consecutive years of providing inflatable entertainment for the St. Tammany Parish Sheriff’s Office Night Out Against Crime. This milestone follows the company’s participation in several Northshore community and school events throughout 2026, demonstrating its ongoing support for local law enforcement, educational institutions, and community organizations.
From 2022 through the most recent Night Out Against Crime on October 6, 2026, The Jump Off has supplied a total of 15 inflatable attractions for the Sheriff’s Office’s annual community outreach events.
Five Years Supporting Night Out Against Crime
The Jump Off first partnered with the St. Tammany Parish Sheriff’s Office Night Out Against Crime in 2022, bringing inflatable attractions to multiple locations across the parish.
Between 2022 and 2025, the company delivered 13 inflatables across three or four locations each year, including Covington, Mandeville, Slidell, and Bush. Coordinating these events required careful planning to ensure that equipment was delivered, installed, and ready for attendees at each stop.
For the October 6, 2026, celebration, The Jump Off provided a castle combo with slide at the Bush location and a 60-foot inflatable obstacle course in Mandeville.
The company’s ongoing involvement reflects a five-year working relationship with the Sheriff’s Office and its community outreach initiatives.
“I still remember the first year the Sheriff’s Office called and asked for four units at four locations on a Tuesday. Of course I said yes, and we made it happen on short notice. What a route that was: Covington to Mandeville to Slidell to Bush. It was a wild day to pull off. Since then, we’ve not only done Night Out every year, we’ve also done their other events at Fontainebleau State Park,” said Nick Glassett, owner of The Jump Off.
Bringing Water Slide Entertainment to Woodlake Elementary
Beyond its work with the Sheriff’s Office, The Jump Off provided inflatable entertainment for Woodlake Elementary School’s water day on May 6, 2026, in Mandeville, Louisiana.
The company installed four water slides—the Titanium, Tiki Plunge, Purple Hurricane, and Red Sea Rush—creating a dedicated water activity area for participating students.
Because the designated play area consisted of gravel and sand rather than a traditional grass field, the team used blue tarps to accommodate the installation.
The event highlighted the company’s ability to coordinate multiple inflatable attractions while adapting its setup plans to different school environments.
Supporting Madisonville Elementary’s Three-Day Field Day
The Jump Off also participated in Madisonville Elementary School’s field day, held May 18 through May 20, 2026.
Throughout the three-day event, students rotated through three entertainment stations supplied by the company: a 60-foot inflatable obstacle course, a Pro Stacker foam cannon, and a nine-hole mobile mini golf course.
The combination of inflatable challenges, foam activities, and miniature golf provided different types of recreational experiences for students participating in the school’s annual celebration.
Coordinating these activities required planning around the school’s available space, event schedule, and individual equipment requirements.
Planning Equipment and Logistics for Community Events
Supporting multiple community and school events involves more than delivering inflatable entertainment.
For organized gatherings, The Jump Off evaluates site access, setup surfaces, equipment placement, and electrical requirements. Depending on the location, installations may require generators or additional preparation.
The company also provides certificates of insurance upon request and recommends that schools and community organizations begin planning their rentals four to six weeks before their scheduled events.
These preparations support the company’s ability to accommodate everything from individual school activities to larger events involving multiple attractions and locations.
Continuing a Commitment to Northshore Communities
The Jump Off’s involvement with the St. Tammany Parish Sheriff’s Office, Woodlake Elementary, and Madisonville Elementary represents an ongoing relationship with organizations throughout Louisiana’s Northshore region.
As the company continues serving St. Tammany and Tangipahoa parishes, its participation in community celebrations and school activities remains an important part of its operations.

Why it matters: The Jump Off’s five-year partnership with the St. Tammany Sheriff’s Office shows how a small family business can become a reliable community anchor—bridging law enforcement outreach, school fun days, and local pride through something as simple as an inflatable slide.
