The Piney Creek Clubhouse is a very active component of the Piney Creek community. It is used by Piney Creek youth groups, recreation groups, and local government agencies, the Piney Creek Board of Directors, Piney Creek Committees and of course by the residents.
The following guidelines are intended to help members understand the clubhouse reservation procedure and some of the more important rules and regulations.
1. The clubhouse is available for use by members of the Piney Creek Recreational Association, Inc. It is available for private parties, banquets, luncheons and meetings. Use of the clubhouse for commercial purposes is strictly prohibited.
2. Reservations are made on a first come first served basis. Reservations for the clubhouse may be made not less than five (5) days in advance of the activity and not more than forty-five (45) days in advance. Be advised that groups such the Board of Directors, Piney Creek committees and local government agencies or school groups are not subject to the 5 day/45 day limitation and often schedule their meeting dates up to a year in advance. Members are encouraged to plan well in advance and call the Community Manager (303-699-8069) to discuss future availability of the facility.
3. Persons desiring to serve liquor at their private event in the Piney Creek clubhouse are required to either provide proof of host liquor liability insurance in an amount not less than $1,000,000.00 (One million dollars) or to not serve liquor. This stipulation is formalized within the Facility Use Agreement / License, Release and Indemnification Agreement that must be initialed and signed by all persons wishing to use the clubhouse.

Reservations may not be made by dependents.
