NOTE: One other important thing to remember when renting
a tent is the size of the space where the tent is to be set-up.
This area needs to be 10' longer and 10' wider than the actual
size of the tent itself in order to allow room to stake the
tent (i.e., 30' x 40' tent needs a 40' x 50' space to fit).
