Volunteers often ask us if they can just show up to have their girls walk across the bridge. We ask that you make reservations because it helps us plan to serve you better. A reservation ensures that you will have access to the building in the event of inclement weather, facilities that are comfortable and appropriate for a large gathering of girls and adults. We also have to comply with laws and insurance standards regarding the capacity of our facilities. One year we did have a group show up unnannounced to "just walk across the bridge". Unfortunately, it was during a time that another group had reserved the facility and it created a less than desirable situation for all concerned.
About the fee that is charged... We recruit, train, schedule and pay a staff member to be at the facility and available during your event to make sure the facility is ready when you arrive, provide assisstance in the event of an emergency, open and close the building if necessary, and assist you with any special requests you may have.
Our reservation and fee policies with respect to bridging ceremonies at The Program, Training, Service and Corporate Center in Vernon Hills are as follow:
- Reservations must be made at least two weeks prior to your bridging ceremony. Requests will be processed on a first come, first serve basis.
