Helena's Party Plus Rentals and Sales to close Feb. 28 after 30 years

The co-owner of Party Plus Rentals and Sales said Thursday she was closing that store and the adjoining A-1 Rentals store will expand into the Party Plus space. “With a (saddened) heart I have decided to close Party Plus Rental and Sales,” Callie Jacques, who co-owns the store and A-1 Rentals with her father, Dan, posted Wednesday on Facebook. The last day for the business at 1400 Cedar St. will be Feb. 28, and the store will have sales up until that time. Dec. 31 will be the last day to rent Party Plus rental inventory, the Facebook post said. Starting Jan. 2 Party Plus Rentals’ used rental items will be sold.
