Return all tables and chairs to their original location following your event. Furniture may not be moved between rooms. Decorations, flyers, etc., cannot be adhered to wall surfaces and cannot be hung or attached to ceiling. Candles are prohibited in the Elliott Program Center. Please exercise care during set-up and clean-up. Do not stand on the tables or chairs. Be alert to slippery floors while cleaning and place a ‘wet floor’ sign to alert others to take caution.
Failure to clean and ready the room for subsequent use will result in cleaning charges that will be billed to the group or the individual user.
