RENTAL POLICY
The facilities of Quimper Unitarian Universalist Fellowship (QUUF) are available for legal nonprofit events having a religious, public service, cultural or social purpose, provided the event either furthers the mission of QUUF by supporting the sense of community in Port Townsend or furthers a positive social objective or advances the general welfare.
The renting group or individual must complete the "Rental Affirmation" and the "Facilities Use Agreement." QUUF staff must approve these forms by signing them. ALL use of the church facilities will be scheduled with the Office Administrator. Church-related functions, classes, meetings or events always take priority over other uses.
WITH A QUUF MEMBER SPONSOR:
Use of the facilities for individuals or groups will be by donation. See the "Suggested Donation Schedule". For events charging admission or accepting donations, the suggested donation is 15% of the door, OR the standard rate from the "Building Use Fee Schedule". A donation envelope will be provided with each "Facilities Use Agreement" form.
To use the facilities by donation, users must have a QUUF sponsor willing to:
- Be recognized and listed as the person responsible and serve as the contact.
- Schedule the event (and cancel if necessary) with the Office Administrator.
- Open the building for the event.
- Be present and monitor the activities during the use of the facilities (including kitchen. See list of kitchen "do's and don'ts".)
- Follow posted closing procedures after the event.
- Leave the facilities in the same condition in which they were found, including placement of chairs.
WITHOUT A QUUF MEMBER SPONSOR:
The group or individual must have the approval of the Office Administrator, complete the "Facilities Use Agreement" form, pay according to the "Building Use Fee Schedule", and make the appropriate deposit. Payment should be in full at time of booking.
WEDDINGS AND WEDDING RECEPTIONS:
These have a separate "Wedding Policy and Guidelines" form, and "Wedding Fee Schedule".
KITCHEN:
Use of the kitchen facilities or equipment is by special arrangement with the Office Administrator at the time the "Facilities Use Agreement" is signed. See "Kitchen Do's and Don'ts" form.
