Our Story…
Noel Lesley launched Noel Lesley Event Services, Inc. in 1980 working out of his garage in Ashland, Oregon. He put up tents at fairs throughout Southern Oregon and at other events around the Rogue Valley. The business grew over the years by word of mouth only….no advertising, as Noel’s commitment to his customers and their events, excellent customer service, and his ability to problem-solve became well known.
Carolyn worked side-by-side with her father for many years and Noel conveyed to Carolyn his core values for both himself and the company. As the President of Noel Lesley, Carolyn Lesley had big shoes to fill when Noel passed away. Since then, Carolyn has guided the company by the principles she learned from Noel and is appreciative and grateful for the opportunity to follow in his footsteps.
Noel Lesley customers return again and again because of the care they receive from us. At Noel Lesley, we treat our customers’ events as though they are our own, and we will never let our customers down.
