The Outbound is an immersive summer experience led by Sea Crest's very own Upper School Humanities Teacher Graham Charles, it is designed for students who want to disconnect from the screen and reconnect with the wild. This isn’t just a "nature walk" it’s a deep dive into the rugged terrain of the Coastside and beyond. We will focus on Field Intel (outdoor science), Land Art (collaborative builds), and Trail Mastery (the physical and mental grit of long-range exploration). Come jump in the Sea Crest Van for a small group experience that is sure to create a lasting bond. 5 days, 5 hikes. Weather and availability- determine experiences. Modern life is loud. The Outbound gives us the rare chance to develop a "Quiet Mind” a high-level skill used by elite explorers and artists to sharpen observation and mental clarity. We’re trading classrooms for the redwoods and textbooks for the trail, spending multi-hour blocks navigating, creating, and learning to be comfortable in the elements. Per our summer camp handbook, this is a cell phone free event. **This camp is for Incoming 5th-8th graders only** ***REGISTER BY APRIL 24th to RECEIVE A FREE SUMMER AT SEA CREST T-SHIRT*** Please look out for an email (sent to the email you register with) a week or two prior to the start of camp with more details.
