General Info:

Both 13 years old at the time, John and Steve spent their summers and vacations working for Don Farmen. From renting bikes and beach gear, to selling sodas and burgers, John and Steve worked hard to learn the concession and catering business. As the years went by, they gained an increasing amount of knowledge, experience and responsibility.In 1986, after being accepted to college, John and Steve learned of the opportunity to secure the food and bike rental concessions at Irvine Regional Park. They took a chance on their dream and signed a lease to operate their own concessions business. As things began to take off, they decided to expand their operations to paddleboat rentals and eventually in 1988 they started their own catering business, Company Picnic Specialists. John and Steve's families and friends often pitched in to help grow their newly-formed business.As Irvine Park began to attract more visitors, their business continued to develop and grow. It was John and Steve's desire to provide an environment in the park in which people would simply have to "show-up" and enjoy a picnic.Word began to spread. Company Picnic Specialists had attracted the attention of small to large companies across the southland. In addition to offering full catering services, Company Picnic Specialists had added activities, organized games and entertainment for both children and adults of all ages.In April of 1996, John and Steve also founded the Irvine Park Railroad. This wonderful attraction has helped to make Irvine Regional Park one of the nicest regional parks in all of Orange County, California.
