CIT Camp
$475.00
July 4 - 24 15 - 17 years

CIT Camp prepares teens to become camp
counselors. It is a three week program that
intentionally develops both outdoor skills and
counselling skills. During the first week of the CIT
camp the participants will take part in a "Skills
Camp." Because safety is our top priority, skill
development is critical as CITs prepare to become
counselors. Skills Camp is designed to meet this need
by bringing together qualified instructors and
willing staff for a week of training in canoeing,
archery, survival skills and first aid. The second
and third weeks of camp will give the CITs the
opportunities to further develop their new skills as
they help to lead some of our camp adventures.

Please be aware that CIT program is a staff
formation program and there is an application
process required. Spaces are limited and preference
is given to LIT program graduates. Please contact us
for more information.
