Outdoor program offers adventure BY MEGHAN.CUSTIS @iowastatedaily.com The Outdoor Recreation Program (ORP) at Iowa State takes the phrase “choose your adventure” to a whole new level. Th e program lets students explore the great outdoors in many capacities. There are five components to the outdoor recreation program: trips, climbing walls, bike maintenance, equipment rentals and workshops. The program gives students the opportunity
to gain knowledge and rent equipment — all with the intent of getting people outside to enjoy what nature has to offer. Students can expect outdoor recreation to be fairly priced. Climbing walls are free with an Iowa State gym membership included with your enrol lment at Iowa State. Bike maintenance is a routine safety check on bikes to make sure they are good for students to ride. Equipment rentals include items such as tents, bikes, camping cooking gear, sleeping bags and other similar items. Renting camping equipment costs students a small fraction of the cost purchasing equipment would. ORP offers various trips for students to participate in.
