Students, employees and alumni are eligible to rent equipment from the Hadlock Student Center throughout the summer. Popular summer rental items include stand-up paddleboards, kayaks, water tubes, tents, sleeping bags, hammocks, and yard games.
New rental items that will be available this summer include mountain bikes, bike racks, and a multi-person stand-up paddleboard that can hold two to four people.
Summer is our most popular rental season, so we highly recommend making a reservation (no money down) to reserve your equipment online. Please also keep in mind that Hadlock is closed on the weekends, so equipment for the weekend needs to be picked up prior to Saturday and Sunday and dropped off after the weekend concludes.
To see what equipment is available and to make reservations, please go here. If you have questions, please contact AJ Heil at aheil@georgefox.edu.

Campus Public Safety will be conducting its annual bicycle roundup starting Wednesday, May 4. If you are staying on campus over the summer and plan to keep a bike here, please come to Campus Public Safety to get a sticker ID so your bike will not be removed.
Here are a few more things you should be aware of:
- At the end of spring semester, a university-wide bicycle cleanup is done. Bicycles that are illegally parked, unregistered or inoperable are impounded. Bicycle racks need to be cleared to do routine maintenance to the bike racks and surrounding areas.
- Bicycles may not be stored on campus during the summer semester. Bicycle claims can be made at the Campus Public Safety office.
- Students using their bikes during the summer must move their bikes to the nearest rack of their summer housing.
- Bicycles not picked up from the impound lot within 60 days will be forwarded to local charities at the discretion of the Campus Public Safety office. Junk bicycles will be recycled.
Questions? Contact Karen Toohey at 503-554-2091 or ktoohey@georgefox.edu.
