General Information 

St. Cuthbert's Episcopal Church, 7932 Mountain Blvd., Oakland, CA encourages utilizing and sharing parish facilities while maintaining responsible stewardship. 
We are fortunate to have buildings that can be used by the communities we serve. Oversight must be given to these facilities to ensure that:
  • Users exercise proper care and safety
  • Facilities are protected against loss or misuse
  • Wise stewardship is expressed through energy conservation and recycling
  • The life of the facility is extended through a maintenance program.
Guidelines
  1. An Application Form is required for all users. The Application Form must be signed and approved. 
  2. A refundable key/security deposit of $300 and all use fees must be paid prior to use of the building.
  3. Only use of rooms and times specified on the application will be allowed.
  4. Decorations can be attached to walls and ceilings only if blue (painter) tape is used. It must be removed at the end of the event.
  5. If kitchen use is approved, it includes only the temporary use of the equipment in the kitchen and kitchen space (refrigerator, stove, microwave, dishwasher, tables, and sinks) i.e. caterer kitchen use. 
  6. All garbage must be disposed of properly (see posters and instructions).
  7. All facilities, including parking lot, must be left clean and in good order.
