Botanical Society
Are You An OH Student?
As a student in the Cuyamaca College Ornamental Horticulture Department, you are automatically a member of Cuyamaca College Botanical Society (CCBS).
What is the Cuyamaca College Botanical Society (CCBS)?
In 1980, the same year the Ornamental Horticulture program was established, a group of first year students decided to form a club with the intent to raise funds for scholarships and beautify the campus. Thus, the Cuyamaca College Botanical Society (CCBS) was born. There are no membership dues, and students in our program automatically become members of the Cuyamaca College Botanical Society (CCBS.)
Each year club members raise funds for the scholarship program through planning OH's signature events. CCBS's efforts have helped generations of OH students meet their college costs since the scholarship program’s inception.
