Availability

All Lab facilities open at 7:15 a.m. and close at 6 p.m. on school days. Several programs operate outside of these hours, such as athletic contests, scholastic competitions, and arts performances. In certain rental situations, additional security and custodial resources must be deployed. Community users should expect to be charged for security and custodial charges if their use either extends beyond these hours or requires additional security or custodial coverage as determined by Lab in its sole discretion. Except in unique situations, no activities will be scheduled between midnight and 6 a.m.

Scheduling

Schedule requests may be submitted via the form located here. A reply may be expected within two business days with an estimate of costs. Assuming confirmation of date and times, details regarding program accessories, security, custodial, and catering (if any) will be gathered and presented in an estimate.
