Organization/Contact Person

You represent or are a facilitator for one of many groups meeting in First Lutheran Church. We are pleased to know that good things are happening throughout your organization.

There are some basic usage rules:

1. Rooms must be returned to their original arrangement. Do not create work for the janitor.
A. Tables and chairs are to be put back in place if they are moved.
B. Table tops should be cleaned with wet cloth and dried.
C. Chairs that have been used should be checked for greasy finger prints and food smears. Clean with a damp cloth and wipe with another.
2. Windows should be closed and lights turned off when leaving. If you fail to turn off lights, they remain on all night long which is costly to the church.

3. NO SMOKING

4. No red beverages (cherry, grape, other dark flavors stain the carpet and can't be removed.)
5. The use of candles is discouraged, as the dripping wax makes spots on the carpet and is hard to remove.

6. If kitchen facilities are used, someone familiar with the kitchen must be present. Consult the church office.

7. Use only the assigned place and time. Please advise the church office if you cancel your meeting date.

8. No taping, stapling, thumb tacks, nails or any kind of adhesives on any papered, plaster boarded walls or on the ceiling tiles. No thumb tacks or nails are to be used on any wood work doors.

9. Do not remove tables from Sunday School rooms before talking to the janitor.
10. There is no storage space available.
