SUBJECT: CarShare
has arrived at Hendrix!
Dear Hendrix
community members,
Hendrix is
pleased to be partnering with Enterprise CarShare to provide a new,
flexible transportation option to the Hendrix community. Two CarShare sedans
now have reserved parking spaces between the Dawkins Welcome Center and the
SLTC. Visit www.enterprisecarshare.com/hendrix
to learn more and get started. The page will answer most of your
questions, but here are some of the essentials up front:
Cost:
The sign-up fee is $20 (a $10 one-time application fee plus a $10 annual
membership fee). To register, users must
- be at least 18 years old,
- have a valid drivers license, and
- have a credit card in their own name.
Memberships
typically take 8-10 days to activate, so set up your account at least 10
days before you plan to use CarShare for the first time.
Rental
Rates: Monday-Thursday rate is $7.50/hr or $60/day; Friday-Sunday rate
is $8.50/hr or $70/day.
Fuel
included up to 200 miles: Each car comes with a gas card. A series of videos on the Enterprise/Hendrix
CarShare page provides information about this feature and others. For complete
details, see the Hendrix
CarShare policy guide.
We hope students,
faculty, and staff will take advantage of this resource and use it responsibly
(i.e., return the cars as agreed, with fuel and a clean interior). Whether you
need to make a trip to a store across town or take a group of friends on an
in-state weekend getaway, consider CarShare as an option that may fit your
needs.
Sincerely,
Michael LeBlanc
Acting Dean of
Students
