Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I can rent on a particular day?
Check the calendar above to see if a rental or event is already listed for the day/time you need. This calendar is updated as each new rental is scheduled and confirmed. If your desired date is available, reach out to us via the form in the calendar page of the website, and one of our dedicated volunteers will get back to you.
How early should I schedule?
Events must be scheduled at least seven days in advance, as we rely on a volunteer to reset our key box between rentals. We will be unable to accept any last minute requests moving forward.
How can I confirm my event?
Events are only confirmed once we have received your signed copy of the Building Use Agreement either in a physical or digital form and once our rental coordinator has ensured your date availability and added it to the calendar. Please be aware that events may be canceled or rescheduled in the event that a funeral is being held in the building at the same time, out of respect for the grieving families. In the event of a cancellation, a full refund will be issued.
When should I pay?
You can pay in advance using our online payment link or by bringing your physical payment to the church office during staffed hours from 10 am to noon on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays or on Sunday mornings.
Alternatively, you can pay on the day of your event. Please place cash or checks in the provided drop-box outside of our front office when you come in for your event. Please label your payment so we can attribute it to the proper rental.
What happens if I lose Wheeler’s key or damage the facility?
In the event of a lost key (whether for the building, pavilion, or basketball goal), we will retain the $50 deposit to use for the purchase of a replacement. Deposits may also be retained in the case of damage caused by the rental group. Major damage will require additional compensation, and the Responsible Party will be billed accordingly.
If I rent two different facility areas, how does that change my price?
Some people choose to rent both the Pavilion and the Family Life Center for large events. The cost is $25/hour each, with a maximum cost of $100 each. For example, if you rented both facilities for the whole day (four hours or more), the cost would be $200 total.
What bathrooms are available to us during our event?
Rentals in the Family Life Center/Gym can use the bathrooms directly across the hall from the gym. Rentals in our sanctuary or classrooms can use whichever bathrooms are closest to their designated area. We ask that you please check to ensure these facilities have been left in good condition at your departure. The pavilion has its own restrooms included, and they can be opened using the same key that provides access to the interior of the pavilion.
What resources may we use?
Both the Pavilion and the Family Life Center come with access to our tables and chairs, which can be found in storage rooms nearby (through the door past the stage in the FLC or straight ahead down the interior hallway in the Pavilion). Rentals of the FLC/Gym include use of the kitchen for basic storage of food. If you need to use our stove/oven/ food prep area and tools, there is an additional $25 charge, and all dishes and cooking/prep surfaces must be cleaned prior to departure. The Pavilion also includes access to the kitchen, and renters must follow the same clean up rules there.
What does the clean-up process look like?
We ask that you please leave our facility the way you found it. Please place all trash in the appropriate bins, and use the provided brooms/towels to clean up any messes made by your group. Ensure that the tables and chairs are put back in the formation they were in when you arrived and that they are not blocking any doors, windows, lightswitches, or alarms.
Where can I find a key to raise or lower the basketball goals?
The basketball goal key can be found in the rental mailbox in teh front office (bottom left side of the cubby system). It must be returned to this spot before departure.
