The Daily Bruin

The Hadlock Student Center has expanded the rental center inventory to include 10 new stand-up paddleboards and 10 new tubes for floating lakes and rivers.

All watersports rentals come with personal flotation devices (life jackets) and paddles (if applicable). Equipment rentals are available to all students, employees and alumni. No membership is required. Since Hadlock is closed Saturdays and Sundays, weekend reservations must be picked up on Friday by 6:45 p.m. and dropped off on Monday by noon.

For more information or to make online reservations, please visit this page. Have questions? Email AJ Heil at aheil@georgefox.edu.

As of today (Monday), the Hadlock Student Center will not be requiring reservations for working out or using the Hadlock Student Center.

The Oregon Health Authority has changed guidance that now allows us to not track user data so closely and will allow us to indefinitely relax these guidelines. We will continue the use of IMLeagues reservations for top rope climbing hours, climbing classes, and fitness classes.

Please note that our summer hours for Hadlock are Monday through Friday, from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. We look forward to seeing you at Hadlock and encourage you to still say “hi” when you check in!

Beginning Monday, June 14, Stoffer Stadium, Lemmons Family Field and the track surface will be closed for use through the estimated completion date of Aug. 10.

The current track surface is being demolished and replaced, so it’s essential that nobody is on the track throughout the project. Additionally, please be cautious in the areas surrounding the track (Carleton Way and Bauman parking lot), as construction equipment will be operating the duration of the project.

We look forward to reopening the facility in August with a brand new surface. Thank you for your cooperation! 

Contact Adam Puckett (apuckett@georgefox.edu) with any questions.

Yamhill County is dropping back down into the moderate risk level, per Oregon Health Authority guidelines. Starting today (Monday), the Hadlock Student Center will now be allowing pick-up basketball games and other “full contact” sports and activities.

At this time, however, we are still requiring masks for vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals. We expect distancing and mask requirements to go away once Oregon reaches 70% vaccination status and the state government gives the go-ahead to do so.

Another change happening as a result of the dropping risk level is that we will now be allowing guest passes to resume for patrons of the center. Please see the policy below and contact AJ Heil (aheil@georgefox.edu) if you have any questions in this regard.

Guest Passes

Following are the guidelines for guest passes.

• Daily guest passes can be purchased for $7 by anyone 18 or older.
• The guest must be accompanied by a student, employee or member possessing either a valid George Fox ID card or other Hadlock Student Center membership card.
• The guest must be accompanied by their sponsor throughout the duration of their time using the facility. Guests are limited to five visits per month.
• Approved guests will need to complete the guest waiver before entry to the HSC.
• A guest pass allows guests to use the facility and also participate in group fitness classes, climbing wall classes, and climbing competitions. Registration for these activities is required through IMLeagues.
• At this time, the guest pass does NOT allow access to outdoor recreation trips and activities, intramural sports, and special events offered by Campus Recreation (unless otherwise specified).
• To use equipment in the facility (like basketballs and climbing shoes) the sponsor must check out the equipment for their guest. However, a membership or guest pass is NOT required to rent outdoor equipment from the HSC Rental Center.

Campus Recreation will occasionally allow access to the facilities for visiting individuals and limited-duration employees or volunteers who do not qualify for a George Fox ID card. Contact the director of campus recreation to discuss the specifics of your situation.

The Bridge Cafe will be closed on Wednesday, June 16, in observance of the university’s Day of Prayer. Students, employees and members are encouraged to focus on their spiritual wellness this day through prayer and retreat.

The Bridge Cafe will reopen for normal hours of operation at 9 a.m. on Thursday, June 17.

Starting today (Wednesday, June 9), the fire systems will be tested in the following buildings:

• Anderson House
• Brandt Hall
• Cary / Beebe / Willcuts Hall
• Edwards Hall
• Fulton Street House
• Gulley Hall
• Le Shana Hall
• Macy / Sutton / Hobson
• Newlin Hall
• Pennington Hall

View Post

The testing will take about one hour for each location, and it will take three to four days to test all of these buildings (academic buildings are also being tested). The test will be noisy, as the alarm is quite loud (as it’s designed to be). We will try to silence the alarm when it sounds, but the test will involve several iterations of the alarm sounding.

Thank you for your patience! Contact the plant services office with any questions (plantservices@georgefox.edu).

We will have a contracted service on the Newberg campus from Tuesday through Friday, June 8-11. They will be doing some overhead tree pruning and dead tree removal.

• North Street between Brougher and Lemmons (no street parking in that area)
• North end of the Wood-Mar lot (about one-third of the spaces in this lot)
• East side of Crisman Crossing Bridge between Hadlock and Canyon Commons
