Our CIT Program is geared towards our oldest campers (completing grade 9 or 10) who are interested in taking on a leadership role at camp. The CIT Program is a summer of fun with our staff, friends, and with all of our technology, meant to lead the transition from kid and camper to young adult and staff member.
