Falling Water Park Pavilion Rental Guidelines

RENTAL HOURS, FEES & PAYMENT

Pavilion may be reserved and rented:
Monday – Saturday (except Wednesday): 10 AM – 3PM | 4PM-9PM | 10AM-9PM (Full Day)
Wednesday: 10 AM-3 PM only

Area churches that share our Biblical understanding of the Gospel and Christianity may use the pavilion for the Active member’s cost.

Full Payment of the rental fee is due when your reservation is booked. When the key is picked up the $100 cash damage/cleaning deposit is due (non-members only).

When the rental is complete and keys are returned the security deposit will be returned less any cleaning/repair charge, and the copy of the responsible person’s driver license will be shredded.

SECURITY DEPOSITS

In addition to the rental fees, there is a $100 (cash) security deposit for non-members to cover damages and cleaning if necessary. Security Deposits are 100% refundable provided the following conditions are met:

The facility is left in a clean and orderly condition per the “Cleanup/Departure Checklist.” Use of the area does not exceed the scheduled time. The area and its contents, including equipment and keys, are accounted for and undamaged. All rules and procedures governing alcohol consumption and smoking are met. (No alcohol or tobacco is allowed on premises) If the above conditions are not met to the satisfaction of church representatives, an appropriate fee will be deducted from the security deposit. If cleaning and/or repair costs exceed the amount of the security deposit, the responsible person will be billed. Repairs will be billed at the full replacement cost incurred, including labor.

CANCELLATION AND RESCHEDULING POLICY

All reservation cancellations must be made in writing. (No exceptions) When the cancellation letter is delivered to the office the appropriate refunds will be tendered.

Cancellation made 30 or more days prior to the event will result in a full refund of the hourly rental fees paid. Otherwise no refund will be made.
