Special Events

If you are having your event at a public place, you should always check to see if you need permits.  Since the requirements vary depending on location, you may need to need to do some investigating to get the answers you need.  Start with the governing body of where the event will take place, such as the municipal office if the event is to be held in a town park.  You may need to speak with the parks & recreation department, zoning department or possibly the health department.  Make sure you have all the details of your event ready when you call; date, time, location, etc.  Don't leave anything out and don't be afraid to ask questions.
