OA Trips - Campus Recreation - CSU Channel Islands

Outdoor Adventure (OA) trips are the perfect way to get off campus and disconnect from everyday distractions. All of the trips are designed to introduce you to the outdoors unless otherwise stated. Our student leaders will teach you the necessary outdoor skills and support you throughout the trip. Most overnight trips include cost of transportation, equipment, meals and any camping or park entrance fees. The OA program does offer partial and full scholarships to participants if needed. You can apply for a scholarship when registering for the trip you are interested in.

Student trip expectations:

Our hope is that each student will commit to making a positive contribution to our group. We will travel as one group and share the work as one collective team during the duration of the trip. Although OA will strive to meet the needs of each student, at times, the trip leaders will need to make decisions based on the needs of the group. Each OA trip is a team experience, and everyone will be expected to help with all camping tasks such as setting up and tearing down camp, cooking meals and organizing gear. The Outdoor Adventures program strives to promote a safe, healthy and environmentally sustainable experience for all students. If you are the independent type who would prefer a solitary experience our trip may not be the best match for you.
