C.I.T. Program Announcement
Our Counselor in Training (C.I.T.) Program is designed for motivated young adults ages 13–16 who are eager to develop leadership, teamwork, and employability skills while gaining hands-on experience in a summer camp setting.
The primary goal of this program is to provide a meaningful educational and recreational opportunity for the young adults in our community. Participants will assist with daily camp activities, support counselors and activity specialists, and serve as positive role models for younger campers. Along the way, they will receive valuable mentorship, training, and guidance from our program staff.
This selective program is ideal for teens interested in becoming future counselors or activity specialists and offers a rewarding way to earn community service experience.
Program Requirements:
To be considered for a C.I.T. position, applicants must:
- Attend all required organizational meetings

Trial Period Information:
C.I.T.s selected for the program will participate in a 2-week trial period at their assigned camp site. During this time, performance will be evaluated by the Site Coordinators.
At the conclusion of the trial period, the Site Coordinators and Program Supervisor will consult to determine whether the C.I.T. may continue volunteering beyond the initial two weeks.
Please note: Space is limited. Not all applicants will be selected, as only a limited number of participants will be accepted into the program.
We look forward to investing in the next generation of leaders!
