All events on Christ the King property must conclude by 12:00 a.m. (midnight). Exceptions will be allowed for parish sponsored New Year's Eve parties and certain youth activities (e.g., lock-ins). All groups are to exit promptly at the designated time of departure to facilitate proper cleaning and closure procedures.

Any set-up time must be scheduled at the time the event itself is placed on the parish calendar. Set-up may begin no earlier than 12 hours prior to the event. Equipment needs (e.g., overhead projector, dry erase board, piano, microphone, podium, t.v./vcr) should be mentioned at the time of scheduling.

The contracting party must attend the scheduled function, and no function may be scheduled which conflicts with liturgy.

Cleaning fees are non-refundable. The normal cleaning fee is $300.00. A reduced cleaning fee of $125.00 is available, provided the following tasks are completed by those holding an event in the Parish Atrium: Countertops, tables and chairs must be wiped down; dishes, utensils and coffee pots must be washed and put away; all debris (e.g., cigarette butts, cans, glasses, paper, etc.) must be cleared from the exterior of the building; and all garbage generated at the event must be collected, properly bagged, and taken to the dumpster located west of the church building (accessible through the catering entrance). Garbage cans must be placed back in their proper locations.

All Christ the King facilities and their entryways are "Smoke Free" environments. Evidence of smoking inside any Christ the King facility will result in the forfeiture of the entire security deposit.

Rice or any substitute (with the exception of bubbles and rose petals) may not be thrown after weddings or receptions. Violation of this policy, whether inside or outside the facility, will result in the forfeiture of the entire security deposit. Bubbles or rose petals may be thrown outside the facility. Rose petals, if used, must be swept up after the event.

No property of Christ the King is to be removed from the facility at any time.

No glass beer bottles, glass pop bottles, or glass containers of any kind are permitted in the facility unless a separate bar area with an attendant is used. In this case, the bar attendant may pour from a glass container into a paper or plastic cup. If alcohol is served and anyone under the age of 21 is present, a separate non-alcoholic beverage bar must be available and located well away from the area where alcohol is being served.

No standing on furniture is permitted.

Please do not change diapers on furniture. Diaper changing facilities are available in both the men's and ladies' restrooms on the main level of the Atrium.

Blue painter's tape may be used on walls. No masking tape or duct tape, nails or tacks (or anything that may cause a puncture) may be used on walls.

No obstruction of entryways or passageways is permitted.

No candles or open flames are permitted, except on tables and well away from any fire hazard (e.g., crepe paper, flammable center pieces, etc.).
