Sound System & Screen

Are you Interested in Renting RCAC's Sound Equipment or Screen?

All requests regarding the RCAC sound equipment are considered on an individual basis. Please be advised that payment and damage deposit must be received at least one week prior to the use of all equipment to ensure the safety of the equipment. Rental request will be considered void without receipt of payment and damage deposit prior to the event. 

To be fair to all groups, individuals and organizations, there are no exceptions to the RCAC rental procedure.

All RCAC equipment requires an approved technician to opperate the equipment which is the responsibility of the renter. The associated costs for renting equipment only can be found in the attached documents at the end of this web page.

Sound Equipment

The RCAC is not an equipment rental organization. Equipment rental requests are only considered for low impact events, where an approved sound technician will be running the equipment. Coordinating and paying a sound technician is the responsibility of the renter. Rock concerts are not considered by the RCAC. 

Screen

The RCAC’s screen is a permanently mounted, retractable high quality screen at the Miners' Hall. Rental requests for low impact events are accepted on a per event basis. 

In-Kind Requests and Donations

If not for profit groups want rental fees waived or donated, an official request must be submitted to the RCAC at least two months in advance of the proposed event for review by the RCAC Board. There is no guarantee that requests will be approved. Damage deposits are still required for donated equipment and coordinating a sound technician is the responsibility of the renter.

Thank you in advance for respecting the RCAC's rental procedure.
