- Do not hesitant to call for emergency personnel if you need any assistance
- Avoid problems, limit guests to no more than a six pack of beer or the equivalent
- Be a Responsible Host
- If you invite a guest, you are responsible for controlling his or her behavior
- Hosting a party is not a lark; all members and especially the officers are accountable if a problem occurs
- Do Not Allow Bottles
- Bottles provide an opportunity for broken glass and injury to your guests. Restrict consumption of any beverages to cans and plastic cups.
