+===== What about the Booze? =====
+**TL:DR** __if we have a 'staff party' that is not open to the public we can serve liquor without a permit. As long as the directors send an invite to the membership first.__
+[[https://specialevents.bcldb.com/help|IS AN SEP NEEDED FOR A STAFF PARTY?]]
+An SEP is **not required** for a staff party if the party is //held in a closed office or business premise// that is not regularly licensed. The party must be //restricted to the owners or employers, employees and their guests and liquor may only be **served** but not **sold.**//
+[[https://www.civicinfo.bc.ca/Library/Policies_and_Procedures/Permits_and_Applications/Special_Occasion_Licence_Manual--Liquor_ControL_and_Licensing_Branch--Jan09.pdf|BC Special Occasion Permits]]
+.3 When a Special Occasion Licence is Not Required:\\
+The special event is held in a private place (if there is any doubt about whether a proposed venue is a
+private place, the individual or organization holding the event should consult with a BC Liquor Store
+manager or LCLB) and liquor is served but not sold. A private place includes:
+a closed office or business premise that is not a licensed establishment, provided that all the
+following conditions are met:
+  * the area used for the event is not visible to the public
+  * the nature and size of the event is such that it will not draw the attention of the public through excessive noise or other disturbances
+  * members of the public cannot enter
+  * attendance is by prior invitation only
+  * the special event is attended only by the employer and employees and their guests (or board members and staff and their guests, if the office is not a business)
+  * no fee is charged for entry or entertainment and no fee is charged for services related to the service of liquor (e.g., fees for mix, ice and glasses), and
+  * the event occurs in the office space normally occupied by the business or agency hosting the event.
