Facilities We have a large hall with an open fireplace and ducted heating plus connected kitchen and toilets. The hall is approximately 16.5m x 7.9m. The hall is full of Scouting memorabilia and this may restrict our ability to hire out the hall for particular activities. COVID-19 Restrictions There are no restrictions on the number of people that may use that hall unless food or drink is being served in which case the maximum number of people is of 64. All people aged 8 or over must wear a mask. All people 18 or over must be fully vaccinated. The hirer must appoint a COVID Check-in Marshal who must ensure that all people attending the event comply with the mask and vaccination rules and use the hall QR code or maintain a list of attendees. Acceptable Uses Family celebrations, sporting club events, special interest groups, small business functions, school events, and charity fund-raising events. Other uses may be subject to approval by the City of Whitehorse. NB: We do NOT hire our hall for birthday parties for 13-21 year olds as per Scout Victoria policy and our City of Whitehorse lease. Hall Hire Charges
Tables and Chairs May be available for use when you hire the hall; however, they can be used by the Scout Group for external activities. If tables and chairs are essential to your event we would recommend that you arrange your own.
Public Liability Insurance 1st Heatherdale Scout Group does not hold Public Liability Insurance that covers non-Scouting events; therefore, it is the responsibility of the other users of the hall to obtain their own public liability insurance. A copy of your certificate of insurance must be presented along with the completed hall hirer agreement before use of the hall will be permitted. Sale and/or Consumption of Alcohol If you wish to conduct an activity involving the sale and/or consumption of alcohol you must seek approval (in writing) from the City of Whitehorse. Our hall does not have a Liquor Licence. Should you wish to sell alcohol on the premises a copy of your current liquor licence would also need to be provided. You must obtain a temporary limited licence from the Victorian Commission for Gambling and Liquor Regulation. Rubbish Removal The hirer is responsible for the removal of any rubbish generated by their use of the hall. For queries regarding the hiring of 1st Heatherdale Scout hall please contact us.
