Mahaffey Event & Tent Rentals
Mahaffey Event & Tent Rentals, a privately owned company, recently celebrated over 97 successful years serving local and Mid-South area clients. Our history is interesting, and we are extremely proud of it! Way back in 1924, brothers Owen, Gene, and Earl Mahaffey started out making canvas tarpaulins, awnings, and cotton pick sacks. When a request came in 1929 to make a tent, they obliged, only to have their client fail to pick it up.

It remained unused until they received a call from the Tri-State Fair (now known as the Mid-South Fair). That call resulted in their first tent rental and the next phase of the business was formed. In World War II, tent rentals were forgotten as the army contracted the job of making hospital ward tents and ammunition bags to Mahaffey. They shipped a boxcar of tents each week.

That remained the sole job of the company for the duration of the war. In 1972, William F. Pretsch purchased the company from the Mahaffey family when the owner Eldred 'Red' Mahaffey died in a private airplane accident.
