Riverdale Reindeer Event Contract
Riverdale Reindeer (RR) agrees to abide by the following:
- We will deliver reindeer * to the event venue at the appointed date and time.
- We will set up the designated display area. (12×12 corral provided by RR.)
- We will display reindeer in constant and continuous care under the supervision of our experienced handlers at RR.
- We will interact with the clients’ invitees and the reindeer under supervision of RR. Interaction will be limited to observation through the corral unless otherwise approved by RR.
- We will allow for the client and the invitees to take photographs with the reindeer at the discretion of RR.
- We will clean up, tear down, and remove all property and reindeer of RR upon conclusion of the event.
- It is important to note that, in most circumstances, RR will bring two reindeer to your event. However, if one of our reindeers is not in a place to cooperate or is easily agitated when handled, we reserve the right to bring only one reindeer to the aforementioned event. Their safety and comfort is of the utmost importance to us and we will never force them to do anything that they do not want to do.
Disclaimers
If at any time during the event, RR deems anything to be unsafe, RR has the right to do whatever is necessary to keep all parties, property, and reindeer safe. This includes, without limitation, removing the reindeer from the area and/or venue
Due to the fact that sheep/goats are host reservoirs for Malignant Catarrhal Fever, no sheep/goats shall be displayed at the venue with our reindeer. Should RR arrive at your venue to find sheep and/or goats on display, RR will leave the event and no refunds will be given.
