GSNorCal CIT Application 2019

The Counselor-in-Training (CIT) program offers high school girls an opportunity to learn leadership and outdoor skills needed to work with girls in a camp setting. During this leadership program, CIT's will explore the areas of campcraft skills, and all will work on group dynamics, child development, program planning skills, camp operations and the role of the camp counselor. The training program includes regular hours devoted to workshops, plus actual experience working with children under the supervision of camp staff.
