Weekender Rules

Weekender Rules

Persons who have been sentenced by the Courts to serve time at the County Correctional Facility on their days off from work or school must abide by the following guidelines:

  • You must report on time. If you are late, you will be kept in custody for the remainder of the weekend and a report will be sent to the judge the next workday. If you do not report at all, we will provide the courts with that information also.
  • You must not report with illegal drugs or alcohol in your system. The Division tests for the presence of alcohol and drugs.
  • You must have a valid photo ID each time you report.
  • If your privilege to drive has been suspended or revoked, you may not drive to or from the Division of Correction. If you can legally drive, you must park in the Mullins Station Road lot designated as "Weekender Parking".

You are permitted to have the following items and property:

  • A toothbrush, towel and facecloth.
  • A wedding band and watch
  • Two pairs of underclothing
  • Valid ID
  • Prosthetics or prescribed medication with prior approval from the Division of Correction Medical Department. You may only bring a two-day supply of approved prescribed medication.

You are not to bring or possess

  • Tobacco or tobacco products
  • Money in any form
  • Pagers, cellular telephones or other electronic items
  • Food or beverage items
  • Cosmetics or toiletry items
  • Anything not specifically authorized by the Division of Correction

You are to wear trousers, shoes and socks and a plain white T-shirt to the Correctional Center. You may not wear open toed shoes or short pants. You may not wear a hat or cap, except in inclement weather while you are outside. You will be assigned a bunk, which must be made upon your arrival. Bunks will be made each morning by 8:00 a.m. and will remain made until 8:00p.m. You may lie on top of your bunk if you wish to do so, but may not get under the covers.

You will also be assigned a work detail while you are serving your weekend time and may be given orders by Correctional Staff. If you refuse to follow lawful orders or refuse to work, you will be reported to the sentencing court. If you have any questions while you are serving your weekend sentence, you may speak to the Correctional Staff supervising the Weekend Center at any time.
