Residential Outdoor School Camps  koss kids on a rock

The natural world cannot be experienced or fully understood within the walls of a classroom.Outdoor learning engages students of all ages, promotes critical thinking & teamwork, and builds a connection to nature.  

Immerse your students in forest, stream, wetland, wildlife, and other field studies with highly qualified educators.  Students can come for anywhere from two to four day residential camp programs (one to three nights).  Hands-on activities and inquiry-based outdoor science are offered.  Lessons can be tailored to specific curriculum needs as well as age and previous experience of your students.

KOSS YurtsResidential camps include outdoor classroom activites such as watershed studies, team building exercises, recreation time, evening education programs including night hikes and astronomy studies, and campfire programs.  Please contact us from more information!
