It’s time for one last 6th grade outdoor adventure! Next Friday June 5th, we are excited to once again return to one of our favorite campsites in the Cuyamaca Rancho State Park area. The plan is for the 6th grade to come to school as usual on June 5th, and then caravan to the Green Valley Falls campground to explore one of the coolest sections of the San Diego River. Optional Side Trip : I will take a few students/parents to fish at Lake Cuyamaca…they apparently stocked the lake with a few thousand pounds of trout recently. We’ll eventually meet up and set up tents in 5 sites at the Paso Picacho Campground…all the while our 6th graders will be preparing all 4 meals. After breakfast Saturday morning, we’ll all plan to summit Stonewall Peak for a 4 mile roundtrip hike that is purported to have one of the best views in San Diego County. We then plan to return to OTA around 2-3pmish Saturday 6/6.

In order to continue the success of our outdoor education program, we are looking for a few parent volunteers to drive to, back and/or both + camping (preferred course!)  More details will follow but please contact jmajor@otacharter.org regarding any questions about the trip.
