A new WOOLF initiative!   WOOLF is piloting a new gear lending system in an
effort to make the program a more accessible experience for all interested
students; traditionally, leaders have been required to purchase or
otherwise find their own gear for WOOLF orientation trips in late
August/early September. We are 100% committed to making outdoor recreation
at Williams as accessible as possible for all regardless of class, race,
gender, ability, etc. To that end, if you have back packs, sleeping
bags/pads, and/or hiking boots that you're willing to lend to a leader,
please fill out this this survey <https://goo.gl/forms/Dc37Hxnb9mudlMdU2>.
More information on the initiative can be found there. Thanks in advance
for your consideration. Please feel free to email [log in to unmask] with
any questions!

Found a WOC headlamp or sleeping bag under your bed while getting ready to
pack?  Please bring it or any other WOC equipment you come across to the
WOC Equipment Room.  NO QUESTIONS ASKED - WE JUST WANT IT BACK!
