Outside Regular Business Hours

For information on how to reserve rooms for a time that is outside of regular business hours please email Donette Felker at facilities@cfscc.org.

Please note all after-hours reservation requests require us to secure a building steward so they may be present during your event. We ask for a 21-day (about 3 weeks) advance notice before your event's start date. This will allow us time to secure a building steward for your event. If your event is sooner, we will do our best to secure a building steward but please know that a steward may not be available at short notice.
