Counselors in Training (CITs) will participate in a modified staff training and then be placed in camper groups of their choice. These groups will rotate every 2-3 days. Every Friday will culminate in a peer weekly wrap up, individual evaluations and setting goals for the following week. CITs must be mature, independent and open to constructive feedback. This program is a training program and campers will not be left alone with campers. Previous experience with camp is helpful but not necessary for enrollment.

Join us for our Counselor in Training Program (CIT) where we train and supervise teenagers working as Junior Counselors at camp. This program includes both group and individual work as a counselor and age specific activities together. As a group, the CITs will enjoy planned activities and time together to learn from each others’ experiences. CITs will participate in a personalized orientation covering roles and responsibilities, policies and procedures, a review of the staff manual, CPR Training, role playing and a graduation ceremony.

Benefits of this program include the following:

• Servant leadership
• Self-efficacy and knowledge
• Experiential learning including teamwork, communication and camper management
