Important Information
Deposit & Bond
· All bookings require a deposit of $100 and bond of $200 to be paid upon formal booking. The bond will be returned after the event, provided there are no unforeseen damages or charges.
Security & Key
· All rooms are alarmed. Depending on your event, you will have access to all the rooms you have booked, plus access to the toilets. You will receive a key and a code. Before the event we will show you how to enter and disarm the building. We ask that you set the alarm when you leave. Instructions to do so will be given to you.
· The key will also unlock the front gate – please relock this gate unless another event is using another area of the church.
· If you lose the key, you will be charged $25 to cover the costs of a new one.
Responsibilities
· It will be up to those hiring the building to ensure that it is tidied and rearranged back to its original order at the end of the event. This is particularly important for Saturday events, as the chairs and tables must be available for the Sunday’s 10am church service. – Decorations usually may remain for a few days, however this will need to be negotiated beforehand and will be up to the discretion of TLC church.
· You will be responsible for any damages done to TLC by your guests. Please note, past experience has taught us that damages can occur when:
o People, including children, swing on the entry gate, or the gate to the sandpit
o Fiddling with or trying to open/close the sound desk without instruction
o Operating the industrial dish washer without closely following instructions
o Operating the coffee machine without instruction.
