Sorry to bring up an old issue, but hope to hear some feedback from the 
folks who posted about this topic three years ago to see if their opinions 
have changed or if they still feel the way that they do.

We recently opened a hands-on gallery in our museum, and are planning to 
host birthday parties in the space.  We aren't going to provide food 
service, but are going to offer use of our kitchen facility if required.  

What challenges have other history museums faced with this type of 
activity?  Those respondents who replied in May of 2002 (if you remember 
responding)...how are things going for you all with these parties?  We want 
to make sure to dot our "i's" and cross our "t's" before we jump into this 
one.  Thanks in advance for everyone's input.
