Building Use

With a small staff already stretched thin running our regular programs, the Senior Center’s capacity for helping with other events is very limited. We also do not have the volunteer base that we used to have. We encourage you to consider other options and contact the Shoshoni Town Hall or Shoshoni Recreation District #24 about other Shoshoni facilities that might be available.

The community room at the Senior Center can be reserved for memorials, meetings, parties, and other functions as long as the event does not conflict with our regular operations or other scheduled events, and if staff/volunteers are available. We are NOT a full-service event venue and do NOT offer event services, so it is not a good option for weddings, etc. If you reserve the Senior Center, you are responsible for setting up and cleaning up after the event, and for any losses or damages connected to the event.

We do have a large open space, tables and chairs, access to bathrooms, and a podium. By special arrangement and depending on staff/volunteer availability, a microphone, baby grand piano, projector and display screen, and a wall-mounted television with DVD player may also be available for use.

In order to reserve the Senior Center, you must sign the Building Use Agreement below, which contains more information. Additionally, all special arrangements and equipment usage must be specified in advance and approved by Senior Center office staff. The rental fee and/or security deposit might be waived for public service events, local registered seniors, etc.

Facility Use Liability Insurance Requirement
To ensure the safety of our patrons, volunteers, and facility, the Shoshoni Senior Center also requires that any outside group, organization, or individual using the center for meetings, events, or activities provide proof of liability insurance. All groups hosting an event or activity at the Shoshoni Senior Center must provide a valid Certificate of Liability Insurance prior to the event, list the Shoshoni Senior Center as an additional insured if applicable, and ensure coverage is in effect for the full date(s) of the scheduled activity. This requirement applies to, but is not limited to: Meetings, classes or workshops, public or private events, fundraisers, and organized group activities. Failure to provide proof of liability insurance may result in denial or cancellation of facility use. The Shoshoni Senior Center reserves the right to request additional documentation or deny use of the facility if requirements are not met.
