Alcoholic Beverage Restrictions for the Event Center
Alcohol is not allowed in the Event Center at any time other than licensed events or private, invitation only events.
- If alcohol is sold at any event, a "Special Events Permit" liquor license must be obtained from Town of Akron. A representative from the group wishing to sell liquor at the Event Center must appear before the Board or submit a request in writing to obtain the "Permission to Sell Liquor Letter" from the Commissioners. The Town of Akron will require this letter before proceeding with the liquor license process.
- Private invitation only events may serve alcohol only inside the Event Center building itself or in pre-arranged, (with the commissioners' office) designated areas outside the center building, (to be roped off and marked by facilities manager). Do not allow guests to take drinks outside of designated areas. All beverages must be served in cans or disposable cups. No bottles are allowed.
- Responsible adults must serve the alcohol and must be aware of the liability of serving alcohol to your guests. It is a violation of law to allow or otherwise permit minors to consume alcoholic beverages. If minors are served or otherwise allowed to consume alcoholic beverages within the center, the entire security deposit shall be forfeited and such violations will be reported to the Sheriff.
- The Sheriff's office will be notified of all events where alcohol is present and will be conducting routine compliance checks throughout the duration of the event as part of their regular patrol.
- The undersigned must take responsibility of the actions of persons and guests attending the event, without limitation, and shall take reasonable steps to prevent or control acts which may result in bodily injury or property damage.
- You must show proof of Liability Insurance (homeowners policy or renters policy) for all events serving alcohol. Please provide your Insurance Co Name and Policy Number Below:
