The C.I.T. Leadership Program is designed for early teens looking for experience working with children and who want to become Camp Counselors in the future. C.I.Ts must be willing to commit required energy, enthusiasm, and a positive attitude to all aspects of the program, as well as be available for the entire session.

C.I.T.s will learn through hands-on instruction, working alongside Camp Counselors. They will learn how to mentor youth, assist campers with activities, and learn how to be a responsible leader. Games, crafts, and activities will be led and provide opportunities for growth and maturity.
