Expectations for Proponents
• The Lyme Community Center (Copley House) is a tobacco free zone.
• LCC expects the proponent to make arrangements to ensure they leave the House as clean or cleaner than they found it.
• For gatherings of more than fifty people involving alcohol, documentation of a cleaning contract must be submitted to the LCC staff.
• Proponents may bring in furniture to meet the needs of their gathering. A limited number of folding chairs and craft tables are available to use.
• All proponents of gatherings are required to take their trash with them (please do not leave trash in the garage cans.)
• All items brought in for a gathering (i.e., food, serving pieces, linens, furniture, tents, porta-johns, etc.) must be promptly removed from the premises within the scheduled time.
• Set-up and tear-down is the responsibility of the proponent.
• The proponents of the gathering are responsible for arranging and paying vendors for everything they require to include music, tents, flowers, photography etc.
• Inclusion of pets or domestic animals will be determined on an event-by-event basis. Owners will clean up after their animals.
• There is no parking on the lawn. Event proponents will be responsible for damage to the landscape associated with parking infractions.
