Check-Out Procedures:
Before leaving the Outdoor Program Rental Center, you are responsible for inspecting all equipment carefully and to bring any missing or damaged equipment to a OP staff member's attention. Make sure any discrepancies are noted on the rental agreement. Failure to note any discrepancies may result in a fee for damaged or missing equipment. If needed, please ask a OP staff member for assistance with inspection and/or instructions on how to properly set-up the equipment.

Watercraft: It generally takes 30-45 minutes to check out watercraft. Please consider this as you make your reservation. Deviation from this time may result in delays as equipment may not yet be prepared.

Check-In Procedures:
Equipment must be returned within 1-hour of the time and date listed on your contract and at least 1-hour prior to closing. Returns later than 1-hour of the listed time may incur a late fee. You will be charged for equipment that is dirty, damaged, or missing, up to and including the cost to replace such equipment. For your convenience, a water hose is located by the west garage door for cleaning equipment.

Late Fees:
Late fees are assessed at 1.5 times the daily rate for each day late. This is strictly enforced as it jeopardizes another person's trip.

Resource Library:
Items in this category may be checked out for a period of 7 days with one renewal. A late fee of $1.00 per day, per item will be charged for overdue materials.
