How to Get Your Event Approved by COCA

1. Make sure that the event is more than two weeks away, we meet the Tuesday after you submit your request to talk about it, and if there are changes required – you have another meeting to talk to us!

2. Do you need public safety officers/event monitors? Do you know where you’ll be holding the event? Can you give us an estimate of how many people will be there? These headings are on our event request form on Hampedia – but sometimes they are ignored – make sure you fill them out.

3. If you intend to host an event that will require sound equipment - check in with Media Services for costs

4. We know duplications and magic board costs, be smart with your estimates on advertising.

5. Be as detailed as possible – if you intend to request $250.00 for food, we need to know where is it going to be from.

6. We do not fund closed events, make sure that the entire Hampshire community can be involved.

7. Don’t hesitate to come into our meeting if you have questions! If you find the Hampedia form confusing or feel that there might be an issue with our requests, you can give us your phone number via email so we can call you during our meeting and ask you to come in.
