Do you love working with younger kids? Put your passion into action
as we explore the basics of leadership skills needed to work with
younger campers, practice planning for activities, and find out what
it takes to help out at camp with younger campers. Girls have a chance
to shine as younger campers look up to them as role models. In
addition to being a CIT, girls will get to enjoy all of the fun camp
has to offer. CITs will focus on building their leadership skills and
being a role model. CITs will get to choose a second week of their
choice in addition to this week however, their second week can not be
LIT week if they are choosing to also participate in LIT
Training.
CIT 1 campers will: Learn about various
leadership styles, Learn how to lead songs, games, and activities,
Learn teamwork and communication skills, Learn how to plan a camp
program, Work with younger campers and have opportunities to shadow
counselors, and Spend a portion of each day participating in the fun,
traditional camp activities.
