Community Center Rental
Do you have a party, meeting or special gathering coming up that you hope not to have to squeeze into your home? Is it the type of event that would be a lot easier if you had a nice place to hold it instead of using your living room? Renting the Community Center could be just the answer. As a resident of Ri-verton, you can rent this lovely 24’ by 48’ room with kitchenette for non-profit occasions. The seating capacity is 76 people, with table and chairs provided. A $100 cleaning deposit will hold your date up to one year in advance. The rental cost for Riverton residents is $75 for a total of 6 hours. The cleaning deposit will be returned to you if the room is left in the same manner in which it was rented. Call the RCA office to save your date.
