| CIT stands for
Counselor-In-Training. Usually CITs are campers
who can’t get enough of camp and who
want to learn how to be a leader, build various
camp skills, and have the summer of their
lives. CITs are energetic, enthusiastic and
set the standard for camp spirit. With more
freedom than younger campers and plenty of
exciting and fun challenges, being a CIT is
an enriching and unforgettable experience. |
|
| |
 |
| CITs will all receive extensive
leadership and childcare training and experience,
and will be offered the chance to become certified
in first-aid and as a life-guard. They will
also choose one or more areas of camp where
they will spend time learning and teaching
with one of the talented members of the camp
staff. |

 |
| The camp experience
and knowledge of traditions the CITs have developed
will shine and be recognized as they participate
in running evening activities, camp-wide programs
such as Carnival Day and Olympic Day, help lead
trips and coach sports teams, run campfires, and
more. At the beginning of the summer the CITs will
decide on a challenging group project which they
will work on throughout the summer. CITs
play a key role at camp meals by serving food.
This will give them a chance to work as a group,
have fun and gain new experiences, such as serving
meals at camp, while helping make the dining hall
fun for the entire camp
|
Don’t worry! We remember that even CITs
are only human. They will have daily scheduled
free time, as well as a supervised day off
every week. Once a week after a sleep-in,
the CITs will hop in a camp van with their
friendly and cool
CIT directors and head for somewhere fun nearby
like Plattsburg, Burlington, Lake Placid,
Montreal or even the Great Escape for a day
of yummy food, movies, shopping, roller-coasters
and other activities. CITs will help decide
the details of these days off at the beginning
of the summer.
