Guest Use Agreement and Renter Rules & Regulations Document
The Guest Use Agreement and Renter Rules & Regulations document must be signed by the renter in order to book the rental. On signing of the agreement and document by both parties hereto, The Mission will reserve the date and times agreed upon and will not make another reservation for the specific date and time frame. For this reason, all retainers are non-refundable even if the date is changed or if the event becomes cancelled for any reason.

Rental Fee
Within seven (7) days of signing the Guest Use Agreement and Renter Rules and Regulations Document, a non-refundable retainer in the amount of 50% of the total rental fee is due. The retainer may be paid by check, wire transfer, or Zelle. The event is not considered booked until the retainer is received. ​
 

Event Insurance

The Mission requires that every event be covered by additional event insurance with a minimum liability coverage of $1,000,000.00 (One Million Dollars). Event insurance must be purchased by the Client. The Mission Events & Retreat Center must be listed as an additional insured on the policy and the policy must include liquor liability if liquor will be served. Evidence of the event insurance must be provided to The Mission no later than (60) days prior to the start of the Event Term. 

​

Cleaning & Security Deposit
The Cleaning & Security deposit for the rental property is separate and is equal to that of the rental fee. A deposit payable to The Mission is due 30 days before the rental term.

This deposit will be refunded within thirty (30) days following the rental period provided the premises are maintained and left in the same condition as when rented, and satisfactory to The Mission management. However, any cleaning (of excess) or repairs deemed necessary beyond normal use (i.e. paint damage and floor gouges) will be charged and deducted from the security deposit. If the building or any part of the premises or its contents, including furniture, is damaged during the event, renter will be solely responsible for such damage. Renter will also be solely responsible for any property items that go missing or are removed from the premises. Staying over the agreed upon time slot will be deducted from the security deposit.
​
It is never The Mission management’s intent to charge or deduct from a client’s security deposit. Our goal is for you to have your event, with the premises treated courteously and left just as found, while following the responsibilities outlined in the Rental Use Agreement and the Renter Rules & Regulations document.

Reservation Policy
Reservations are confirmed on a first come, first served basis. Because The Mission has more than one booking agent, it is possible that other parties may be interested in the same dates. We must honor the contract we receive first. Once a signed contract is submitted and received, the requested dates will be blocked on the calendar for seven (7) days. If payment is not received within seven (7) consecutive days after receipt of the contract, the requested dates will be released from the hold and become available to the public. We cannot guarantee availability at this point.
