Amusement Rides for Various Events

Lancaster County, South Carolina, through its Parks and Recreation Department, is soliciting proposals under solicitation number 2026-RFP-067 for a qualified and licensed contractor to provide amusement rides for various county-sponsored events. The selected vendor is responsible for the comprehensive delivery of services, including equipment provision, transportation, installation, operation, supervision, power generation, maintenance, and all necessary permits and insurance.

Proposals must be submitted by September 17, 2026. The procurement process requires adherence to the County General Terms and Conditions, which include strict compliance with safety standards, indemnity clauses, and legal regulations. Additionally, vendors may provide an Affidavit of Certification to claim Small, Minority, or Woman-Owned Business Enterprise status. The contract is managed by the Procurement Director, Tracy Rabon, and ensures that all rides are safe, clean, and fully operational for the duration of the scheduled events.
