Checking
Out Equipment
Because the CO-OP is funded through your student fees, you
DO NOT have to pay to check out equipment, it is there for
your use for free. You do, however, have to check it out
when a CO-OP staff member is working or with Keith McCallister.
Much of the equipment in the CO-OP is new and of good quality
so it is important to keep track of everything and make
sure it is not being taken when there is no staff working.
Just as important, when equipment is returned, it must be
when a staff member is working so we do not charge you for
something we did not know was returned. The CO-OP is open
during these hours.
How to check out equipment
When you come to check out equipment we will need to see
your student ID and you will need to provided your local
address and phone number. We have two systems for checking
out equipment — short-term and long-term. Short-term
is anything checked out for a couple of hours to 1-day.
We will still require your phone number and ID, and your
ID card will be left at the CO-OP with a short term check
out form. Checking out equipment for a longer period of
time will require having a file created on the computer
for you. We will need all of the same information as with
the short-term.
Returning equipment
When equipment is returned the CO-OP staff will take it
and check to make sure it is not damaged and return your
card if it was a short-term checkout. For items such as
tents, rafts, sleeping bags, etc., you may or may not wish
to wait while it is being checked for damage, but if damage
is found you will be charged for the cost of repairing or
replacing the equipment. When you check out the equipment
it would be a good idea to double check and make sure all
parts are there and any damage is recorded when you check
it out so you will not be charged when it is returned. There
will also be a late fee charged to your student account
if your equipment is not returned when it is suppose to
be returned. This charge, depending on the equipment, can
be up to $5.00 per day. The bill will continue until the
replacement cost of the equipment is met and it will be
charged to your student account. For items such as sleeping
bags and tents, be sure to hang them and allow them to dry
before putting them away in their stuff sacks.
