House and Camping Site Rules of the Tower
Youth Meeting Centre
(This compulsory part of the residence contract is acknowledged by signing the residence
contract.)

Dear Guests!
Welcome to the Tower Youth Meeting Centre (TYMC) in Oberschleißheim.
Our Meeting Centre consists of the main building, the workshop, the memorial area,
the great open-air site, the camping site together with the facility building, as well as
the residence building for our employees. Our direct neighbour on the site is the
Bavarian Foundation for East and West Prussia (Ost- und Westpreußenstiftung in
Bayern e.V.).
During our introductory tour of the TYMC you get to know our golden rules (the plan
of the site is attached).
The following information gives you answers to many further questions about our
Centre and will make your stay easier!

In order to keep the prices for accommodation and seminar rooms low and to use the
public buildings owned by the district of Munich in a responsible way, we kindly ask
you to leave all rooms, seminar rooms and the whole site in such a state which you
would like to find it yourself.
Group supervisors/group leaders are obliged to pass the following information to the
group members and to guarantee its observance.

Introduction about the house and the site
The TYMC is a self-catering house. Our instructions shall enable you to have a self-
organised and self-responsible stay. After arrival, one of our pedagogical employees
will welcome you and give you an introductory briefing about the house and the
whole site. The briefing takes about 30 minutes and is obligatory.
The buildings/rooms you booked will then be given over to you, and you will be
informed about the escape and rescue routes. Fire Safety Regulations part A and B
are part of our Rules. In case of emergency, act according to the emergency plan
and immediately inform the employees of the TYMC.
By signing your signature you confirm the receipt of the introductory briefing and
observance of the rules. We appreciate it when the whole group takes part in the
introductory tour. The supervisors perform their legal supervision also towards adult
participants.

Departure
At your departure you are required to hand back all rooms in the exact state in which
they were given over to you. As a rule, the main building has to be broom-cleaned.
The kitchen in the main building and in the facility building on the camping site has to
be mopped; the same applies to particularly dirty toilets and bathrooms. Furthermore,
the whole site has to be clean. Please make sure you separate waste. Please make
sure that you plan enough time for the acceptance of the site by our employees.
Please note that we will charge you with extra cleaning costs if the rooms are not left
behind in a proper condition.

                                                                                       1
Opening and closing hours
Please lock the entrance doors after 10 pm. The keys for the doors and rooms are at
your disposal. Because of safety reasons it is possible to leave the building from the
inside at any time at day and night. Please mind that you cover all the resulting costs
when a key gets lost.

Night-time peace
The night-time peace at the whole site is from 11 pm until 6.30 am. Group
supervisors guarantee its observance.

Parking on the site
It is not allowed to park on the site. For loading and unloading you may drive your car
onto the yard. After finishing, please park your car on the street along our site
(Ferdinand-Schulz-Allee). As a rule, the gate has to be kept closed at all times.

Memorial area
The memorial area is a place of commemoration. Please show appropriate respect.

Material and media
When booking you have the possibility to order a facilitator's tool case, data projector,
laptop and a printer/photocopier for a lending fee. Flip charts and paper are at your
disposal. Please take care of other materials yourself. It is not possible to make
phone calls, send faxes or print anything in our office. When ordering deliveries to be
carried out at the address of the TYMC, please take into consideration that you
normally have to be on site personally to be able to receive them.

Emergency plan and fire protection
By receiving the introductory information about the Centre, group supervisors
acknowledge the emergency rules. Please note that open fire, e.g. candles, is
forbidden in the whole building area.

Using our workshop
The workshop may only be used for work or training by properly instructed and
trained persons. They have the supervision over the participants working in the
workshop. As a general rule, each time when you leave the workshop, the door has
to be locked. It is forbidden for participants to stay in the workshop without the
responsible supervision. If you have only a limited part of the workshop at your
disposal, you are obliged to communicate this fact to your participants and provide
for its observance. You are liable for damages and improper usage of tools. Safety
instructions must be observed.

                                                                                       2
Tower
The tower on the site, which provided for the name of our Meeting Centre, may be
visited by your group at your own responsibility. The key is available upon request.

Swimming pool
Our ecological swimming pool has a clearly marked-off part designated for
swimming. Every group is obliged to observe this zoning. Groups not using the
swimming pool guarantee, as mentioned during the introductory tour of the site, that
no group member shall jump over the swimming pool fence.
The Swimming Pool Rules regulate its usage. The usage of the swimming pool is
allowed to swimmers only and it has to be supervised by a responsible person. The
responsibility for supervising during swimming, briefing about potential hazards and
checking the swimming abilities of the group members, rest on the group leaders.
The supervision has to be performed continuously. It also involves not allowing other
groups present in the TYMC to enter the area of the swimming pool. As a general
rule, the gate of the fence has to be locked after swimming has been finished. The
swimming pool is not a “go-wild” playground for uncontrolled activities.

Fireplace and barbecue site
The fireplace may be used by the guests residing in the main building. The
instruction about the firing has to be observed. The barbecue site is available for both
guests staying in the main building and on the camping site. Fire is allowed only in
the designated sites. Only fire wood may be used. Do not exceed a reasonable size
of the bonfire. The fire has to be extinguished before the barbecue site is left. When
using the barbecue site, a bucket of water and a fire extinguisher have to be kept at
hand.

Smoking and alcohol
The regulations of the German Law for the Protection of Children and Youth
(Jugendschutzgesetz) are to be obeyed. Smoking is prohibited in all buildings and at
the whole site. Group supervisors are responsible for the observance hereof.
Cigarette ends at the smoking point outside the site must be removed properly by the
groups themselves.

Bedroom booking
According to our pedagogical concept, groups sleep in multi-bed rooms. Assigning
the bedrooms to the group members is the responsibility of the group leaders.

Reporting damages
Please report to us any damages you see on your arrival. If some damages are
noticed by our staff during the acceptance procedure on your departure, they will be
assigned to you. Please also immediately report any damages which emerge during
your stay. Signing our residence contract implies that you possess a sufficient
insurance coverage (third-party insurance) for all your guests.

                                                                                      3
Sustainability
It is important to us to deal with resources in a responsible way and that is why we
kindly ask you to
- separate waste into the designated containers and dispose it in our waste-storage
room,
- switch off the lights when leaving the rooms,
- open the windows entirely for a short intense airing in the heating period,
- close the windows and doors during rainfall and windy weather,
- bring back returnable bottles,
- deal with materials provided to you in a responsible way,
- use the economy button when flushing the toilet,
- put clean sheets on your bed at arrival and take them off at departure; otherwise we
might be forced to charge you for extra cleaning costs.

Food and drinks
Your stay either takes place on a self-catering basis or you and your group are
involved in preparing meals.
You can help yourselves with drinks sold by us on an honesty basis. Please
document the consumption on a list. In case of a difference between the consumed
drinks and the amount on the list, the deficit has to be covered by the whole group.
The deficits will be invoiced together with the costs of your stay.
Please observe the needed hygiene and our hygiene plan when storing and
preparing meals.

Our service
Information on how to use the kitchen can be found in the kitchen. Network plans of
the Munich public transport (MVV) are lying in the main building next to the office.
When booked well enough in advance, we will be happy to provide the following
additional service to you (partly against a fee):
- shuttling your luggage from and to the Oberschleißheim railway station,
- preparing the data projector,
- dividing the seminar room into two parts through a mobile partition wall,
- renting musical instruments, song books, balls and games.
All rent items have to be given back unprompted to our employees before the
departure at the latest. Other arrangements may be made orally and they are equally
binding.

Householder's rights
The manager of the TYMC exercises householder’s rights on behalf of its provider,
the Kreisjugendring München-Land. In case of violation of the House and Camping
Site Rules and other oral or written arrangements, the manager or his/ her
representatives may ban any guest from entering the site.
