Rent the Rock - William Penn Elementary
Below are guidelines and frequently asked questions to consider before renting the rock:
What can I rent the rock for?
You can rent the rock for almost anything! Paint the rock to celebrate birthdays, achievements, as a thank you, congratulations on an accomplishment, good luck, special milestone, offer well wishes and words of encouragement, etc. The rock is a fun way to share any kind of positive message.
Are there any restrictions regarding what I can put on the rock?
All rock decorations must meet the same handbook standard expected of any school sponsored sign, attire, events, etc. Renting the rock for advertising, commercial, political, or religious purposes is prohibited. William Penn PTO has the right to remove any painting deemed inappropriate by school administration without notice to those who painted the rock.
How do I rent the rock?
Choose the day you wish to begin renting the rock from the CheddarUp sign up form below. Select your date, add to cart, checkout, and you're all set!
How long is my rental for?
Rock rental begins at 4:00 pm on the Friday of your reservation and continues until the following Friday. (Example – if Jane wants to rent the rock for the week of 9/22, she will reserve the rock on Friday, 9/20, at 4:00 pm. Her reservation will end on Friday, 9/27 before 4:00 pm.)
How much does it cost to rent the rock?
$20 per week rental period.
How can I tell if the rock is available to rent?
Select the date you wish to rent the rock. The page will indicate that the rock is available for rent by indicating "1 left in stock." If you see "SOLD OUT," it means that the rock has already been rented on that date (even though you can fill in your information, you can't add the item to your cart).
How do I pay to rent the rock?
Payment must be made through CheddarUp.
Where does the money go?
All proceeds benefit the William Penn PTO and will be used to support students and to assist in their learning.
What supplies do I need?
You will typically need 2-3 cans of spray paint for the base coat, acrylic paints for your design, a clear coat spray to seal the design, and tarps/drop cloths/garbage bags to protect the grass. We recommend craft/foam brushes for the design.
What if I rent the rock and the weather is bad?
The rock can easily be towel dried and painted. You may wish to bring a large tent to shelter/shade the rock from the elements while painting. The PTO will not offer refunds under any circumstances.
Can the William Penn PTO paint the rock for me?
William Penn PTO is not responsible for painting the rock. You are welcome to find someone to paint the rock for you if you wish, but painting the rock is fun, and no matter what you do, the person or group you are painting it for will love it.
What if the rock is already rented on the date I want?
Rock reservations are on a first come, first serve basis, so make your reservations NOW! If the date you want is already reserved, choose the next available date, either before or after.
What if I’m painting the rock and someone shows up thinking they reserved it?
What if the school campus is closed due to extenuating circumstances?
If the campus is closed due to extenuating circumstances (i.e., closures for impending natural disasters or orders issued by local officials), it is imperative that you not trespass. This would be the only circumstance where a refund would be considered.
