Atwood Memorial Center Promotional Space Policies and ProceduresFor Off Campus VendorsPromotional spaces serve a dual purpose by allowing student promotions and sales while also allowing non-university commercial and non-profit vendors to provide valued services to students. Atwood Memorial Center (AMC) will not allow the sales or distribution of products that promote violations of University policies, state or federal laws and university contracts. Specific items that are prohibited in the promotional spaces include: accessories or items that promote alcohol or tobacco use, credit card or debit card sign up, except for those situations where the card is provided as an incidental service to a product or service (i.e. phone calling cards). The sale of flowers or live plants is prohibited without the permission of the AMC contractual flower vendor. Vendors may be asked to remove items not listed in their vendor application. Anyone using promotional space is required to stay behind the table/kiosk when distributing material or recruiting. No excessive noise is allowed. AMC reserves the right to make changes to accommodate the specific needs of its customers. All parties and their members reserving space at St. Cloud State University must comply with the regulations governing the campus. Any client or individual who violates campus policies may be denied the right to schedule space for future activities. Atwood Memorial Center (AMC) has three kinds of promotional spaces available. Please submit your reservation request at least two weeks before the day of your event, with payment made within 5 business days. Kiosks are $40 per day. They are four feet by two feet, with one center drawer, two stools and a cabinet with three shelves. Main Lounge space is $80 per day. Table space is approximately 10' x 10' and can accommodate up to three 6' tables. If you wish to bring in your own display set, it must be kept within the space you are assigned. Mall space is $80 per day for a space approximately 10' x 10'. Atwood Memorial Center will provide up to three six-foot tables and three chairs for each space reserved. If you are interested in a specific area on the Mall, you should note your preference when you make your request. Mall space will not block sidewalks, entrances, the handicap ramp, or the Mall Front Porch. Driving on the Mall is not permitted unless arrangements are made ahead of time. Any vehicle on the Mall or grass is subject to a fine. Indoor space cannot be guaranteed when the weather is not conducive to outdoor events. Please keep this in mind when reserving space.
