ROUNDTABLE: CIT (Counselor-in-Training) Programs
CIT programs designed to provide young adults with the knowledge, skills, and experience needed to work as camp counselors can be a wonderful bridge from older camper to staff member. There are a variety of ways to set up CIT program activities as well as whether participants should pay a fee, be a volunteer, and/or earn service hours. This roundtable will focus on the pros and cons of having CITs as part of your offerings. Bring your successful CIT models and experiences to the conversation. If you are thinking about adding a CIT program - bring your questions and concerns.
This discussion is open to SPARC members only. We welcome and encourage participation from anyone with involvement in auxiliary programs including Directors, Assistant Directors, CFOs, and any other school personnel that are interested. The discussion will be facilitated by SPARC Senior Advisors, with the goal of encouraging the participation of all attendees. Recordings are available to SPARC members within 24 hours.
