Amendment 0001 for solicitation RFQ 36C25219Q0224 for Organist, Catholic Service for the Captain James A. Lovell Federal Health Care Center (FHCC) located in North Chicago, IL.

Q1: Are the services normally cancelled during inclement weather? How does that affect contract commitment?

A1: Staff could not recall an occasion when services were cancelled. In the event services are cancelled, the Chaplain would notify the musician of the cancellation and no payment would be made. Service cancellations, sicknesses, or personal emergencies are justifiable reasons, but payment is made only when services are rendered.

Q2: In looking at Solicitations 36C25219Q0228 (Organist, Protestant Service) and 36C25219Q0224 (Organist, Catholic Service), I was wondering if you could tell me if the Protestant and Catholic Services are at different times, or happen at the same time of day?

A2: Sunday Protestant Services is at 9:00am and Sunday, Catholic Mass is at 10:15am. These same timeframes are utilized for special holiday services if they fall on a day other than a Sunday (i.e. Christmas Day).
