Rent The Rec

Renting/Booking the Recreation Center

The Diamond A Recreation Center (The Rec) is a private club for the use of its members.  It was established as a means of creating a sense of community among families living in the Diamond A area, and to create opportunities for member families to socialize together by planning specific social events throughout the year. 

A sponsoring member of the Diamond A Recreation Association (DARA) can reserve The Rec for private parties or social events, pursuant to the fee schedule and rules summarized below.  Outside organizations (i.e., those not directly associated with Diamond A) may also rent the facility if it is available and if a DARA Member agrees to be the sponsor for the event.

The rental fee is waived for associations directly associated with the Diamond A community (DANA, DAMWCO, Trail Safe, GSFSC, ARC, etc) for the purposes of their regular Board meetings and other meetings of general relevance to the Diamond A community.

The Rec is rented on a first-come, first-reserve basis.  Preference on dates is given to Rec and DANA community events.  Members wishing to rent/book The Rec are encouraged to submit an application 6 weeks in advance.
