I. Statement of Purpose, Definition of the Facilities & Extent of the Policy The purpose of this policy is to define and establish guidelines for use of the facilities of Redeemer Presbyterian Church (RPC). It is intended to assist individuals or groups wishing to use the facilities by providing the guidelines for use and identifying whom to contact for approval, scheduling and / or assistance. Further it provides a list of the various event coordinators, their job descriptions and check lists to be used to assist with the specific type of event. In some instances, the person requesting use of the facility may serve the role of a coordinator as described in the list of coordinators. Please discuss this possibility with one of the church Administrative Staff if you wish to coordinate your own event.

A. Definition of the Facilities as used in this Document

The Facility Use Policy is applicable to persons or groups requesting use for any of, but not limited to, the following events:

2. Facility use is prioritized under three classifications

a. Church Initiated Activities – Activities by and for ministries of the church take priority over other uses. b. Member Affiliated NonCommercial Activities - Events arranged for by members of the church and their

ministry in the community will take priority on a first come first serve basis when it has been determined that conflicts do not exist with church initiated activities. This also includes Redeemer School Activities.

c. Member Affiliated Commercial Activities – Events as listed in (b) above, but where commerce or financial exchange is used to exclude participation, or for private member related activities. (ie: school/educational activities for fee, fundraisers, private parties, etc.)

d. Community Activities – Activities and events by organizations in the community are welcomed. Such use is limited to occasional events (plays, weddings, etc.) Long term commitments (beyond one month’s use) of the property for these purposes without a Redeemer Church affiliate’s sponsor are strongly discouraged. Outside organizations without a Redeemer sponsor may be denied facility use on an ongoing basis.

e. Any new long term use of the facility needs to be approved by the diaconate or its representative.

II. Use of the Facility

This section contains information on how to request the use of the facility, roles & responsibilities, keys & access, setup & cleanup, kitchen use, office & office equipment use, and the churches alcoholic beverages policy.

2. The Church Administrative Staff will: a. Check the church calendar to determine if the requested date and time is available. b. Make a determination as to the appropriateness of the event or will consult with the church’s Operation’s Officer or Deacon(s) as to the appropriateness of the event. c.

e. After the determination of availability has been made, the Church Administrative Staff will inform the requesting person(s) of the availability of the facility for the specified use either verbally or by email.

f. If the event is approved, and if the date and time do not conflict with any other event or regularly scheduled program of either the church or the school, the event will be noted on the church calendar.

(Note: It is the requestor’s responsibility to notify the Church Administrative Staff of any changes to the date

and time or if the event is cancelled.) B. Who May Use The Facilities ( Members, Regular Attenders, Guests )

1. Members – A member of Redeemer Presbyterian Church is someone who: � Has gone through the formal membership process to join the church � Is active in the life and mission of the church, � and / or is a child of a person who fulfills the above requirement.

2. Regular Attenders – A regular attender is someone who attends RPC and participates in the worship, life and mission of the church but has not taken the steps required for formal membership. 3. Church Guests – Guests are defined as persons outside of the church (as classified above.)

Guests may also be someone who occasionally visits or has visited RPC but does not attend regularly.

C. Keys and Access

1. Location - Spare keys are controlled by the church’s Administrative Staff through a sign-out sheet. Access to the spare keys is limited to the Church Administrative Staff.

2. Use / Signout of Keys on a short term basis applies to all members, regular attendees, and organizations using the facilities. If there is an ongoing use, other arrangements should be discussed with the party, prior to facilities being used. This policy is primarily for single events or short-term use. Keys should not be copied or given to any other person than the person arranging building use.

3. Sign-Out sheet - Anyone needing a key for a short period of time will be required to read this policy and sign a sheet indicating they have read the policy and received the key. A $20 deposit is required for all signees, which will be refunded upon the return of key. A short statement of use should be written on the sign- out sheet as well. By signing the sign-out sheet you are acknowledging that: As you receive keys, you are responsible for locking

the doors that you use. Return of the keys is expected within one week of the function.

4. Returning Keys - Upon returning the keys, the person will sign that they have received their deposit back, and have returned the keys.

5. Accountability - While the primary responsibility for returning the keys falls on the person who signed-out the key(s), Administrative Staff Members (Administrative Pastor, Administrative Assistant, or Building Manager) may follow up after one week to see if the keys have or have not been returned if no record of return exists.

D. Setup and Cleanup

Setup and Cleanup requirements are applicable to all non-church initiated events with the exception of funerals of members and/or member families- Church staff and volunteers will (if desired) perform setup and cleanup for funerals of church members. A Setup/Cleanup fee for non-member funerals is included in the Facility Use Fee.

1. Setup - If an event requires any setup of furniture or equipment; (tables, chairs, lecterns, sound system,

instruments, dressing rooms etc.), this setup should be discussed with a member of the church administrative staff or a designated event coordinator. A specific event coordinator can assist in determining setup needs using a checklist and will contact appropriate church staff for you.

2. Cleanup - It is the responsibility of the individual or organization using the facility to make sure the facility

areas used during your event (i.e. Auditorium, Cafeteria, Nursery, dressing rooms, etc.) are cleaned and in good order for the regular use of the church and school. The church Administrative Staff or a specific event coordinator may assist you by coordinating with the appropriate church staff if required. The person in charge of the event is asked not to leave the building until a final walk through with your event coordinator is complete. Please note the following regarding cleanup:

• If cleanup is left undone or not performed in an agreeable manner a cleanup fee may be charged at the discretion of the church at a rate of $14 per hour.

• The church may deny future use to any person or group if facilities are left in an unsatisfactory condition.

• All decorations and rented equipment must be removed as part of the cleanup as soon as the event has ended. See Decorations, Furniture / Fixtures for more information.

E. Kitchen Use

Due to limited equipment and space, it is recommended and preferred that all food related events be catered and / or prepared outside the facility by the persons (or associates) who are requesting use and / or hosting the event. Use of the kitchen and equipment is only permitted at the discretion of the Kitchen Coordinator. Please do not use or take food and supplies from the pantries or refrigerators. If kitchen use is permitted, it is your responsibility to make sure all equipment and utensils are cleaned and properly stowed away after use. As previously noted: The church reserves the rights to deny future use to any person(s) or group if the

facilities are left in an unsatisfactory condition

F. Office and Office Equipment Policy, Printing Programs

The church will only print programs for member funerals and weddings if requested to do so. (Please see an event coordinator if programs are needed). The church office equipment may not be used for any other Non-Church Related events. The Church Administrative Staff may be able to recommend a local business that can handle printing needs for non-church related and guest related events.

G. Dressing Rooms for Weddings, Family Rooms for Funerals, or Other Use

If rooms are needed to serve as dressing rooms for a wedding party or a family room during a funeral or for any other use, please let your event coordinator know as arrangements can be made to have dressing rooms set up for you. Note that the rooms should not be locked, therefore, it is your responsibility to secure personal belongings yourself. (For weddings, it is recommended that women use Room 104 in the children’s wing (front section of the building), and that men use Room 110 in the rear section of the building
