C.I.T. Program

Counselor in Training (C.I.T.) Program (10th-12th Grade)

As you know the summer can be a time of wasted days. If teenagers have nothing to do, they will do nothing all day long. We want to provide a summer full of activity, fun and learning for your teen. Many of you are familiar with our C.I.T. (Counselor in Training) program. Although we hope that many of the teens who participate in this program will later become counselors, we aim to achieve three main goals:

1. Provide an escape from an unproductive summer
2. Provide fun for teens with their peers and older role models
3. Build character & leadership qualities through volunteer service & Bible teaching

We believe this will be a wonderful growing experience for your teen whether or not he/she wishes to become a counselor in the future. C.I.T.’s will receive training in the following two areas:

• Activity Assistant - Learn how to interact and provide fun, safe activities for children
• Group Assistant - Get hands on training with mentoring and caring for the needs of children as well as communicating with parents.

Orientation

There will be a mandatory orientation Saturday June 19th @ 10am. A parent or guardian must attend as well. A Code of Conduct form must be signed by both parent & teen.
