• A bartender is required for every event

• Rentals are for a four-hour period.  Additional hours may be purchased at the event, at the discretion of the bartender, excluding weddings.  An additional charge of $100 will be secured per hour, if applicable.

• All hall rentals require a 50% non-refundable deposit at time of booking.  The date is not confirmed until deposit is received.

• An additional $100 security deposit will be required.  This will be refunded upon the conclusion of the event at the discretion of NLCC.

• All balances on rentals are due 14 days prior to the event.

• A guarantee of the number of guests that will be served is due seven (7) days prior to the function.  Number of guests may be increased up to 48 hours prior to the event. 

• All alcoholic beverages must be purchased from NLCC and consumed in the function hall. NLCC reserves the right to limit and control the amount of alcoholic beverages consumed by guests.  No liquids of any sort may be brought into the building.  NLCC also reserves the right to terminate an event at any time.

• The function hall is a non-smoking facility. All smoking is to be done outside the facility in designated areas.

• NLCC is pleased to provide meals prepared by our in-house caterer and menus will be included with the Function Hall contract and informational package.  If an outside caterer is used, the caterer must provide a certificate of insurance naming NLCC as additional insured.  In addition, they must provide Serve Safe and Choke Safe Certification and that person must be present at the function.   Additional fees may be applied with use of an outside caterer.

• Guests may use their own food, such as cakes, snacks, finger foods, or potluck, but beverages may only be provided by NLCC.  All food brought in must be fully prepared with kitchen access limited to refrigeration only (if space is available).  The Kitchen Usage fee of $100 allows rinsing of dishes and use of the oven to keep fully prepared foods warm (no cooking allowed at anytime).  All beverages including juice, coffee, soda, beer and liquor must be purchased through the bar. 

• All displays and decorations proposed by renters shall be subject to NLCC’s review.  NLCC prohibits the affixing of anything to walls, floors and light fixtures or ceiling.

• The hall is expected to be left in the condition in which it was rented. All decorations and trash must be cleared at the completion of the function and placed in appropriate trash bins. The bartender will inspect the rooms for cleaning problems or markings on the doors, walls, tables, and chairs or in the restrooms.  This will determine if the security deposits will or will not be returned. Extra cleaning charges or damages will be billed to the event if damages are found.

• The renter is responsible for all damages incurred by his or her guests in the banquet hall and in the building. 

•  NLCC will not be responsible for any articles left after the event.
