HENDRICKS PARK <br /> Hendricks park picnic shelter includes 6 picnic tables, seating 6 -8 people each, a maximum of 50 <br /> people. One drinking faucet and one spigot are available, lights and outlets are on a timer. A <br /> fireplace is also available, but locked. Renters need to get the key from 1820 Roosevelt PRIOR <br /> to the event and this key is also their responsibility to return. The electric outlets are on one <br /> twenty amp circuit, and the circuit will overload usually with more than one heat producing <br /> appliance. <br /> Upon conclusion of the event the shelter should be left in a clean state - all the garbage must be <br /> placed in the garbage receptacles. Decorations, etc. should be removed, and the fireplace locked, <br /> if it has been opened and used. Renters should provide their own firewood and remove any <br /> excess. (It takes a good fire in that big fireplace to really get any heat out of it.) <br /> No staples or nails may be used. Any defacing of the shelter building will result in holding the <br /> deposit for repairs. Tape and paper gum may be used to decorate, but must be removed. Rental <br /> season extends April 1- Oct. 31. During the winter season the water is turned off. Rental hours <br /> are 9:00 a.m. - 10 p.m. We only allow one rental per day. The restrooms are open until dark. <br /> The rock restrooms are the nearest and open during the same season as the shelter. There is one <br /> parking site for persons with a disability and the grounds are wheelchair accessible. We <br /> encourage people to car pool. If you intend to car pool in a bus please inform staff who will then <br /> help accommodate you in a special parking area. <br /> Group activities at Hendricks park are limited to the picnic shelter and the area immediately <br /> surrounding it and the large open picnic area. Renters must see the map of these areas and sign <br /> along with the rental agreements. Renting the shelter in no way allows for the use of the <br /> Rhododendron garden for group activities. <br /> All other rules of commercial use of the building apply. Insurance agreements are needed when <br /> alcohol is being served and or catered meals served. All other park rules apply, including no <br /> kegs, no glass bottles, and no hard liquor. <br /> { The picnic shelter may be reserved, but no structures or barriers erected, the parking lots are not <br /> reserved and also may not be blocked. People reserving the shelter have the right to ask others to <br /> leave the shelter and should have their rental agreements with them when using the facility; they <br /> may also sit in the shelter parking lot and ask other park users to park elsewhere. <br /> COST <br /> $60.00 for a day /$100.00 security deposit, refundable after use <br /> Renters may set up canopies and chairs only with special permission <br /> Amplified sound is prohibited, although renters may ask permission for "quiet" music or sound. <br />
