There's no need to scratch your head wondering where to rent equipment for a special weekend excursion.

If you've been seeking out the services of a camper, barbecue grill, lawnmower or boat, Outdoor Recreation is no longer located at the eastern end of Bldg. 914. It's now one street over in Bldg. 985.

The move will help establish a one-stop shop of sorts in one central location for not only renting equipment, but for other services as well.

"In an attempt to make full use of our resources, the 78th Force Support Squadron has consolidated a number of facilities creating the FSS Community Commons," said Kent Jenkins, Community Services flight chief. "Outdoor Recreation, Outdoor Adventure Programming, framing and engraving are now conveniently located under one roof in the former arts and crafts building on 10th Street."

"We look forward to serving Robins finest from this new location," he said. Team Robins can stop by to check out the new digs. For more info, call 468-4001.

Through the reorganization, there are future plans to re-establish woodshop and auto hobby shop services as well, according to Jenkins.

On another note, the Airmen's Attic is closed and will not be accepting donations until further notice.

It is expected to re-open in a new location, Bldg. 914. A grand opening will be scheduled with more details to follow.

The non-profit organization is open to all ranks, Officer, Enlisted Active, Guard, Reserve and retired with a valid base identification card.
