On Wednesday and Friday, they will be assigned a group within one of the all-day camps. They will be responsible for helping the lead counselor organize the group, lead activities and guide the campers. The Counselor-In-Training Supervisor will evaluate the CIT at the end of every session and even prepare them for a mock interview. On a Monday in each session, we will take our CIT’s on their own field trip to thank them for their hard work.
