Q. What drives the cost
of an event?
A. Alcoholic
beverages, the length of your event (because most of our staff are
paid hourly), and, finally, special equipment rentals, especially
for off premise events. Of course, beef tenderloin, veal chops and
rack of lamb are more costly than chicken breast or pork tenderloin.
Salmon, walleye, sea bass, and halibut are all specialty fish in
limited supply.

If your non-profit organization is holding an event at a venue whose
operating guidelines allow the sale of alcohol, but the venue does
not have a liquor license, then your organization must apply to the
State of Ohio Division of Liquor Control for a Temporary/Special Functions
Permit.
"The 'F-2' permit is for a function sponsored by a non-profit
organization organized for a charitable cause, cultural, fraternal
or educational purpose, to sell beer or intoxicating liquor by the
drink, at a place where the sale of beer or intoximcating liquor on
that day is otherwise permitted by law. The applicant-organization
shall not be affiliated with the holder of any permit other than a
D-4 permit, but a D-4 holder cannot be issued an 'F-2' in its own name.
An 'F-2' permit is effective for not more than forty-eight (48) hours,
and no sales can be made after 1:00am."
"No more than two 'F-2' permits can be issued to the same applicant
in one calendar year. You will need the following forms to secure a
temporary 'F-2' permit:
Please begin this application process 90 days before your event. Thank
You.
