In order to have the deposit refunded, we require the building to be left as you found it with no damage. All food, trash, decorations, and caterers' equipment be removed that day. Cleaning requirements include wiping down tables and chairs before storing, sweeping, and mopping excess debris and food/drink spills. We provide the cleaning tools, trash cans, and liners and there is a dumpster located in the back parking lot. Non-compliance to any of these requirements will forfeit your deposit. If a refund is approved, then you will receive a check in the mail one to two weeks after the event.

There is a city parking lot across from the front entrance on Franklin Street, and a County parking lot on Franklin just to the east of the building.
