Welcome! It is our privilege to host your group in our church. Many community groups meet in our facilities, as well as individuals and private events. We see it as a part of our ministry to be a good neighbor. In this way, we support organizations that provide help and opportunity to individuals and to the community at-large, and welcome all to our church building.
COST
The groups that use our facilities do so for a nominal fee. We rarely make money renting our facilities, nor do we seek to do so.
Fee schedule is as follows:
Non-profit community groups are asked to pay ten dollars ($10) per weekly meeting. This fee may be waived by the CSCC Property & Finance Team for groups like the Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, etc.
Special Events for Non-Church members: May reserve space, dependent upon schedule being cleared through the church office, for the sum, in advance, of $30 per hour for predicted facility usage (to include set-up and clean-up time) and a refundable deposit of $50 towards possible repairs and extended usage time.
** Fees are to be paid to the Church Office, in advance, in the form of two (2) separate checks. **
Church members: May reserve space, dependent upon schedule being cleared though Church Office, for the sum, in advance, of $15 per hour for predicted facility usage (to include set-up and clean-up time) and a refundable deposit of $25 towards possible repairs and extended usage time.
** Fees are to be paid to Church Office, in advance, in the form of two (2) separate checks. **
***********************************************************************************************************
The CSCC-UCC Property & Finance Team may, at its sole discretion, allow a waiver or modification of the fee for a group. A request for a fee waiver should be sent to the P&F Team in writing via the Church Office e-mail address (office@csccucc.com). The budget for the maintenance, improvement, and repair of this building runs into the tens of thousands of dollars each year. In order for us to be able to continue to offer our facilities on these terms, we need the cooperation of every group who uses the church building.
EXPECTATIONS
- Your group will be regular and prompt in its payments to the Church according to the agreement you have made with us.
- You will return any room (or rooms), we have provided you, in the same condition in which you found it. This includes replacing chairs and tables where you found them, sweeping the floor and cleaning up any spills, if necessary, mops and brooms are located in the kitchen closet.
- You will not use any rooms that have not been assigned to you.
- It is a serious breach of this agreement for any and all children to be wandering the halls of the church while Mom and/or Dad are at a meeting or event. It is also a safety issue! Children must be attended to in the room or rooms in which you are meeting. If that is not possible, group members must not bring children or your group must provide adequate childcare (a minimum of two CORI-checked adults) and rent an additional room for the children.
- The paragraph above also applies to any group of children/youth who are using the facility, for example, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, etc.
- The use of alcohol, tobacco, and/or illegal substances is strictly prohibited. The use of the elevator is for the handicapped and baby carriages only.
- You will lock the outside doors if your group is the last to leave the Church.
We appreciate your cooperation so that we may continue to be of service to the community.
If you are interested in possibly renting one or more of our available spaces, contact the church office at office@csccucc.com or 508-697-6016 for availability. (Office hours are shown on the website home page.)
