YMCA Camp Campbell Outdoor Science School (CCOSS) is a residential outdoor education program for 5th and 6th grade students. We are located within the redwoods of the Santa Cruz Mountains, where we have been serving students for over 25 years. Education comes to life in our unique setting as students experience the thrills of nature through hands-on lessons and activities.

Outdoor EducationOur CCOSS staff believe that children are the key to the future, and that their understanding of nature and their wise use of our natural resources are essential to the well being of the environment. We strive to develop students’ awareness of their role in the environment, as well as their appreciation of the beauty of nature. Our dedication to delivering a hands-on “living” curriculum is based on the California Science Framework and the core concepts of: adaptation, ecosystem, conservation, interdependence, community, niche, cycles, and environmental ethics.

At CCOSS, students gain independence as they spend 4 days and 3 nights away from home in an atmosphere committed to building healthy youth through Asset Development. Students learn responsibility as they take care of themselves and their belongings (with proper guidance); and gain respect for others as they share a living space with fellow students. Students learn to live the core values of the YMCA: Caring, Honesty, Respect, and Responsibility in terms of themselves, others, and for the environment. CONTINUED...
