Stouffer Outdoors

 
You will get wet on this ride but also make great friends, meet new people, and have fun.
 
Stouffer's traditional, Stouffer Outdoors, will be Monday, August 19th, leaving at 9:30 a.m. and returning by 5 p.m. However, participants must move in on Sunday, August 18th, to attend an orientation meeting that evening and be ready for an early departure on Monday morning. First-year students are highly encouraged to attend and will return to campus in plenty of time for all the NSO activities.
 
Stouffer Outdoors will include:
  • A lunch meal.
  • An opportunity for canoeing.
  • A chance to get to know your neighbors better.
*Breakfast will be light and grab-n-go, and dinner will be at the Dining Commons. While the House is subsidizing much of the experience's cost, we ask that each student attend pay a $110 fee to reserve a place and help cover the expenses. If the fee would cause you too much of a financial burden, feel free to contact stouffer@collegehouses.upenn.edu about the possibility of removing this barrier to participation.
 
Registration is first come, first served, and currently for 1st year students only (Click Here to Reserve). If your spot has been reserved and confirmed (you have received an email notification from the House Director or House Coordinator), please see the payment options:
 
Checks can be made payable to the Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania. Please bring the check with you when you move in.
 
OR
 
A $110 cash payment can be brought with you to move in on August 18th. (There is an ATM at the WAWA underneath Stouffer Hall, and there is no surcharge fee for using the ATM.)
 
THE HOUSE DIRECTOR OR RAs WILL COLLECT PAYMENTS UPON YOUR ARRIVAL ON AUGUST 18th.
