How to Register

  • Register via the WellRec App, My WellRec Portal or bring your Wolfpack One Card to Member Services, located in the lobby of the Wellness and Recreation Center or Outdoor Adventures Equipment Rental Center.
  • The trip fee is due by credit card only (no cash or check accepted) when you signup, and trips are sold on a first-come/first-serve basis.

Trip Information

  • Please plan to attend the required pre-trip meeting for our off-campus trips.
  • Alcohol, tobacco and drug use are prohibited for the duration of the trip. If you violate these rules, you are subject to removal from the trip, and transportation back to NC State will be at your expense.

Refunds

Participants that can no longer attend a trip must inform Outdoor Adventures at least two weeks before the pre-trip meeting. They must request a refund by contacting Wellness and Recreation staff (wellrec-outdoor@ncsu.edu). Deposits on trips are non-refundable.

Partial or full refunds within two weeks of the pre-trip meeting may be considered for personal emergencies with written and verifiable proof of inability to attend (e.g. a doctor’s note). Documentation must be provided at least five business days before the trip’s departure date for any refund to be considered. No refunds will be given after this period, regardless of reason.      

All refunds are at the discretion of Wellness and Recreation. We will provide refunds if the activity is canceled.
