There is space at the front of the room to accommodate a table for presents, cake, and other light foods. We provide a table at no additional cost. You must provide your own tablecloth, utensils, and paper goods. 

Our helpful staff will be available to assist you with set up and any technical needs. We do not provide chaperones for the children—the parents and/or other adult supervision must be on hand.
