You can edit or delete an existing event up to 7 days prior to the event date. To cancel or change your event within the last 7 days, contact the Superintendent's Office at least 24 hours in advance of the event so custodians can be notified. This is especially important in the evenings when the custodian awaits a group's arrival or has to set up for a group event. (ydeva@bhpsnj.org / 908-464-1718 ext. 1020)
A request for facility space must be submitted at least 5 days in advance of the event date. If it is less than 5 days, you will not be able to submit the request.
Organization leaders are responsible for supervising the students at all times, which includes bathroom use. No student should be in any place except in the location identified or the bathroom with supervision.
The area used should be left in the same condition as it was when the group entered it. The organizational leader must ensure that nothing is touched or used in the space that belongs to the school and/or the teacher. If damage occurs, it is the responsibility of the organization to repair/replace the item(s).
Requests for 'field' usage is managed through the Berkeley Heights Recreation Department via email at recreation@bhtwp.com or by phone at 908-464-0550.
