Purpose of SCSP Why does Navy CYP implement SCSP? Navy Teens Improve their sense of a “Navy teen community,” and Opportunities and exposure to professional and industry standards of varying educational and recreational activities that could lead to possible career paths or future leisure in the varying activities. Navy CYP Highlight our creativity, ingenuity, geographic locations, and exceptional ability to deliver high quality-of-life programming to our Navy families. Hope that “host sites” continue offering similar programming for their Navy families after the conclusion of their SCSP experience.

Testimonial (Rota) Cont. From the Mouths of Babes Testimonials

Testimonial (Rota) Cont. “Life is a journey of exciting adventures and a lot of other endeavors to trivial to write about. This trip took out the trivial matter and forced all the exciting adventures into two weeks. I have never done so much or learned so much in such a short amount of time. This was a life- changing experience that I’m very fortunate to have been able to participate in.” Tenley G. - Yokosuka, Japan

Testimonial (Rota) Cont. “To be honest, when I saw this trip on paper, I didn’t think it was plausible. I couldn’t believe the Navy would pay as much as it did. Regardless, every cent was worth it. There was so much potential in this event, and I believe it fulfilled expectations and then some. This experience was more than just a few weeks of travel, it was life changing, at least for me.” Gabriel A. - Sigonella, Italy

Testimonial (Rota) Cont. “I thought this was a great trip because it teaches teens to challenge themselves and get out of their comfort zones. This trip actually changed how I see things. For instance, I have a much greater appreciation for nature due to this trip. Also, I learned that my family is the one I should treat better than anyone because they are the ones that love me the most. I was taught many new life skills that I will use in my day to day life. I would love to come on this trip next summer. If not, I would like to see others share the same amazing experience that I did.” Amon M. - Valencia NSE

Testimonial (Rota) Cont. “Being at this camp gave me a new perspective of many things in life. I learned how and what it’s like to be a leader from our counselors and the different types of leadership as well. I also became more aware of nature because before this camp, I did not really pay attention to life outside, but being able to be outdoors actually looking at the beautiful mountains and wildlife opened my mind. OAC Euro Camp 2014 is definitely an experience that will remain with me forever. I learned a variety of different concepts and had the opportunity to challenge myself in activities that I thought I would never be able to experience. I am honored that I had the opportunity to attend this awesome adventure camp.” Valerie Anders - San Diego, California

Testimonial (Panama City) Cont. "My child came back home a new kid. Since I was diagnosed with cancer I have not seen him so happy. You gave him two weeks of a lifetime. He can't stop talking about all of you. You and your staff gave me my boy back and there are no words to you for that. You were all a blessing.” - Parent
