How to Sign Up for Trips: The OC puts out wilderness trips every weekend, in all seasons and during winter and spring breaks. To find out which trips are scheduled, you can call the Outing Club, e-mail, check the OC webpage or stop by the house. We recommend you call and check on the status of your trip two weeks prior to the date it is scheduled to go out. If there is a trip that you are interested in joining, the sign-up process goes like this:

Option #1
1. Come to the OC House (behind Dewey).
2. PAY FOR THE TRIP-- your spot on the trip is not secure unless you have done so. All weekend trips are $20 for in-state trips and $25 for out-of-state trips. Day trips are $10 for instate and $15+ for technical trips. There may be further expense attached to specialty kayaking, caving and climbing programs. PLEASE PAY BY CHECK, Cash, or CatScratch!
3. Put your name, phone# and e-mail address on the list.
4. Pick-up packing list and leader contact sheet.
Option #2
Stop by the Outing Club desk in the SGA space on the 3rd floor of the Davis Center.

After completing these painless steps, your trip leaders will contact you with details of time and place for a mandatory pre-trip meeting to discuss what gear you will need, what prior experience you have and what your goals are for your chosen trip. Most gear is available through the Outing Club, if you don’t have your own. Rental fees are included in the price of your trip!

House Hours for Spring 2008:
Monday-Thursday: 9am-5pm
Friday: 9am-3pm
