Camping Rentals
Camping equipment can be expensive to purchase. This service gives you the opportunity to participate in outdoor activities without a big investment. We do have limited quantities of equipment, so plan ahead and reserve your equipment in advance of your outing!
Camping equipment is available for rental in the Equipment Services room (109D). Experienced staff members are available when picking up equipment and returning equipment. You can receive instructions on tent set-up, stove use, and much more.
