Counselors are pretty awesome, right? Want to be just like them? This session is a 6-day/5-night camp for campers who have a strong desire to work with children. This session will create a foundation for the Outdoor Leadership Program focusing on the fundamentals of being a leader. This session will provide the chance to plan and help facilitate an all-camp activity for younger campers. Campers will learn and practice skills such as fire building, cookouts, song leading, game facilitating, and much more.
As a leadership camp, the focus is not on participating in traditional camp activities like swimming, archery, and hiking, but rather on developing leadership qualities and skills. Campers will have some opportunities for these activities, but most of the schedule will structure around leadership discussions, skill practice sessions, working with campers, and on occasion with staff to build on each camper’s personal and group leadership growth.
This session is only for campers going INTO grades 9, 10 & 11 in the Fall of 2023 and who are interested in earning the CIT pin.
Horse experiences are not part of this camp.
