Club Table Program
Our Club Table Spaces are for student clubs to promote their initiatives, recruit new members, and engage with the campus community!
Introduction
Club Tables are to be used for club promotion and information dissemination, but not for commercial activity (including ticket/merchandise sales) nor direct fundraising.
Each weekday there are 4 tables available to be booked, 2 in the south wing near Starbucks and 2 at the north entrance, near Union Market.
Clubs are permitted up to 5 tables per month, which are booked out on a first-come, first-served basis, starting at NOON on the 15th day of the previous month.
**Bake Sale Tables are booked separately. Please use this Bake Sale Table form**
Booking Requirements
Club Tables may be booked out by MSU-recognized clubs, Faculty Societies, Teams, McMaster Departments and MSU departments for the purpose of promoting the group’s activities to the McMaster community.
Club Tables are booked no earlier than the 15th day of the previous month (e.g. October 15th for November 1-30 bookings).
Groups are permitted a maximum of five (5) Club Tables per month and no more than one (1) per day.
Only a registered booking contact for the group may submit a request for a MUSC Club Table. Due to extremely high demand for the tables, requests submitted by someone other than the registered booking contact will be disregarded.
Club Table reservations will only be processed through the MUSC website form (www.muscmcmaster.ca). Tables will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis
Booking Start Times & Requirements
The booking contact requesting the table will be contacted by email with the details regarding booked dates and table numbers. The booking contact is responsible for ensuring the details of the booking are correct. Groups must report to their assigned table only.
Club Tables may be occupied between 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM, and MUST be occupied between 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM. Attendance will be taken.
