CCO Leadership

Miranda Wyatt Email Miranda Wyatt

Miranda is thankful to be part of the CCO team, returning to her YMCA roots in camping. Just under 20 years ago, Miranda was introduced to the YMCA as a summer camp counselor in North Carolina. For 13 years, Miranda worked in several capacities and locations in YMCA Camping, a highlight being the opportunity to lead the YMCA day and overnight camping conference for the Southeast for 2 years. In 2018, Miranda stepped away from camping to further her understanding of the YMCA and served as a Branch Executive Director in Asheville and Winston-Salem, NC. Miranda has always dreamed of returning to camping, specifically in Colorado at Camp Chief Ouray. She is thrilled to get back to providing safe, welcoming and fun spaces where kids can be their best selves. Miranda enjoys hiking, writing, swimming and eating chocolate. You will often see her exploring the property with her husband, 3 kids and dog.

Joining the CCO team is a dream come true for Ben. He’s been part of the YMCA family since 2012, taking on roles as a Summer Camp Program Director, Children's Museum Education Director, after-school Program Director, and Senior Program Director for a residential YMCA summer camp. No matter the role, his heart has always been with the campers, students, and their families that he’s had the privilege to serve. Ben is especially excited to invest in the camp staff—helping them grow, lead, and create unforgettable experiences for campers. He wholeheartedly believes that you can teach a good person anything—and that goodness exists in everyone. He’s also deeply passionate about the transformative power of camp and the YMCA, and he’s honored to be a steward of CCO’s incredible legacy. Outside of camp, you’ll find Ben adventuring throughout nature with his wife, playing and recoding music, and is eager to camp, hike, ski, and skate across CCO’s breathtaking property.
