CIT Program
Our Counselor-In-Training (CIT) program is the first step in the transition from camper to staff member. This program is for those who are ready to take on new challenges, opportunities, and responsibilities at camp. Participants in the CIT program will gain a meaningful leadership experience while putting the skills they develop into practice on a daily basis. Camp is an ideal setting that aids in the development of important life skills such as communication, problem solving and cooperation, all in the same fun, magical, creative culture that keeps campers returning summer after summer.
