Party Prices
When the clubhouse is booked for a party prices are elevated roughly 35% above regular pricing.
This allows us to keep the hire charge low but all attendees (members and non members) are required to pay party prices. It's still a bargain and significantly cheaper than other spaces and venues.
Keyholder
Before a booking can be made you need to secure a keyholder that will be responsible for opening and closing. You can obtain a list of keyholders from your committee if you don’t know them already.
Wrapping Up
After your event, you and the keyholder have a joint responsibility to ensure the place is left as you found it. This means that you need to;
-
Stock the fridge
-
Drain the glass washer
-
Empty the glass and can recycling bins
-
Leave the place clean and tidy
