Confluence E-News (August 2009)
If you’ve been to our website in the past 2-3 weeks you haven’t seen much change because we have been hard at work a BRAND new website. We are really excited about the new site as it will offer some great new features and we believe you will be excited too! Be sure to leave us a comment tell us what you think, we love hearing from you!
Besides working on the new website, we are really psyched about some new announcements we get to make today, because we know you’ll love them! In addition to some new things happening at Confluence, we have changed a few things about how we handle our rentals, to help streamline the process. Learn more about everything below.
Birthday Parties:
Many of you have asked if Confluence would ever do parties?

Rental Updates
Conference Rooms
- Time Frame: Over the past year our Free Conference rooms have become crucial in the life of this community. Many of you have chosen to host events or meetings in these rooms. They became so popular that we had to open a 2nd conference room this past Spring. The past few months we have been trying to determine how we can better serve this community. 95% of our bookings are 2 hours or less, so to allow for more folks to use the conference room through the week our conference rooms are now free up TWO HOURS instead of the original three hours. Each additional hour will only $15.
- Food options: Additionally, many of you have been requesting to bring outside food in to the conference rooms and up until this point we have not allowed any outside food. Starting today, for a one time fee of $20 you can bring as much outside food as you want. However, no outside drinks will be allowed. All beverages should be purchased through Confluence.
Confluence UNDERGROUND
We have simplified the booking options and lowered the prices. So if you need to host a large business training meeting, family reunion, etc – we are the place to be! Learn more about the new rental options and lower prices.
** New policies and prices apply ONLY to events booked after August 20th.
