Rental Inquiry Form

Alcohol usage is strictly prohibited on DNC property when students are present for educational programs (8 a.m. – 4 p.m. Monday - Friday). For any event at which alcohol is served, the renter shall comply with the following requirements. Licensed Caterer Requirement - The renter must engage a caterer possessing all required liquor licenses/permits and liability insurance to serve alcohol. This requirement applies regardless of the type of alcohol served or whether service is hosted or cash bar. The renter must provide proof of such licensing and a certificate of insurance to Dodge prior to the event date. Dry Hire Caterers - In lieu of full-service catering, the renter may engage a “dry hire” caterer, provided the caterer maintains the required liquor license/permit and liability insurance. Under this arrangement, the renter may supply the alcohol, and the caterer shall be responsible for its service. Host Liquor Liability Insurance Option - As an alternative to hiring a licensed caterer, the renter may obtain host liquor liability insurance or special event liability coverage for the event. Such policy must name DNC as an additional insured and must be submitted prior to the event. Type of Alcohol Allowed - Alcohol service is limited to wine, beer, and hard seltzers. Legal Drinking Age Compliance - Alcohol shall not be served to or consumed by any person under the age of twenty-one (21). Valid government-issued identification may be requested of any guest at any time during the event. Food Service Requirement - The renter shall ensure that food is served in conjunction with any alcohol service. Service Hours - All alcohol service must conclude no later than thirty (30) minutes prior to the scheduled end of the event and in no case later than 11:00 p.m. Failure to comply with these requirements may result in the suspension of alcohol service and/or termination of the event, at the discretion of DNC.
