OUR BEAUTIFUL SITE
San Gorgonio Outdoor Science School
We are at 6,500 ft in the beautiful Angelus Oaks area of the San Bernardino Mountains. Our site is leased from the YMCA of Greater Whittier.
DINING HALL
Students are provided three delicious and nutritional meals a day. Vegetarian options are available at every meal as well as a salad at lunch and dinner.
If your child has special medical meals, they may be packed from your home and sent with your child’s teacher. Please let us know in advance.
I enjoyed the wonderful food, breakfast, lunch and dinner.

OUTDOOR AMPHITHEATRE
The Outdoor Amphitheatre serves as one of our main community spaces at camp. Somewhere where everyone can gather to enjoy s’mores and each others creative talents.
Thank you for the best experience I ever had and I am going remember this for the rest of my life.

CABINS & DORMS
Cabins are assigned by gender. Boy Cabins are on one side of camp and girl cabins on the other. Bathrooms are just a few feet away from the cabins. There are two large cabins that include bathrooms.
All cabins are winterized and heated. One adult sleeps in the cabin with a maximum of 12 students. Students are supervised at all times.
The best thing that happened at SanG was meeting all my cabin mates and getting a special bond with them.

CHANGES IN WEATHER
Seasonal Changes at Science School
Keep in mind that depending on the time of year, San Gorgonio Outdoor Science School can look dramatically different. This can also present a completely different approach to your packing and preparation.
San Gorgonio OSS is prepared to handle any type of weather. We have rain gear and boots ready for students in need, to use in rain and snow. In addition, we have large indoor areas to provide warmth. Outdoor activities are limited during inclement weather.
