Holly Shelter Spirit Rock

We are excited to open our Holly Shelter Middle School spirit rock up to our school community.  You can celebrate birthdays, holidays, milestones, and share positive messages and good vibes with all who visit our campus.  All proceeds from our spirit rock will go directly back to HSMS for teacher grants and school improvements. 

Ready to rent?  Here's what you need to do:

1.  Check the calendar for available dates.  The rock is available for 7 day blocks, the dates in orange are the paint change dates (beginning/ending at 4:15PM).  Dates in green are the full days that your design will be on display.  Dates in black are unavailable. There are no partial blocks available for rent.  Blocks longer than 7 days include dates where school is not in session such as winter and spring breaks.

Please note that there are 2 sides of the spirit rock available to rent and 2 separate calendars to check for availability - Side 1 is the side facing you when you are arriving at HSMS and driving towards the roundabout.  Side 1 has a rental fee of $35.  Side 2 is the side facing you when you are departing HSMS and approaching the roundabout to exit the school.  Side 2 has a rental fee of $25.  

Access the SIDE 1 Calendar here.

Access the SIDE 2 Calendar here.

2. Email us to request your available 7 day block. Requests will be honored on a first come/first serve basis.  You must include the dates you are requesting, your student's name and grade level, and a general design idea.  Please make your reservation as far in advance as possible so that we have time to review your requests.  Please send all requests to hollyshelterspiritrock@gmail.com

3. Please allow 2 business days for your request to be reviewed.  You will receive an email response letting you know if your chosen dates are available.  This email will contain a link for submitting your payment of $35 (front side) or $25 (right side).  You must submit your payment within 48 hours in order to finalize your reservation.

4. After your payment has been processed, we will black out the dates on the calendar and send you an email confirming your reservation.  You're all set!  

5. When your date arrives, you can paint your side of the spirit rock beginning at 4:30PM.  Be sure to bring your own painting supplies, we do not provide any paint or primer.  You are responsible for painting your design and making any changes to the base color/priming over the previous design.  Please be mindful of vehicle traffic and wait for the car line to clear before painting.  Paint should be exterior, non-oil based paint.  Please DO NOT use oil based paint on the rock.  

6. Reminders:  No oil based paint on the rock.  Please only paint the side of the rock you reserved and no other surfaces or property.  Keep messaging positive and school appropriate.  We reserve the right to cover up any acts of vandalism or inappropriate messages/artwork.  

7. We'd love to see your designs and share them!!  Please email us photos, or tag any social media posts with #hollyshelterspiritrock so we can see your creativity and share your messages!
