The Counselor in Training (CIT) program
is provided to give 15 year old individuals an opportunity
to live and work at a resident summer camp. CIT's will
be assigned to assist staff in a variety of camp program
areas and learn about that portion of our program. This
one or two week program is completely free to CIT's.
The purpose of this program is threefold:
First, to give Boy Scouts an opportunity
to demonstrate and develop skills as a counselor in
a specific camp program area.
Second, to provide our senior camp
staff an opportunity to evaluate a Counselor In Training's
abilities.
Third, and most important, to develop
our Counselors In Training into future camp staff members.
Individuals completing the CIT program will be given special
consideration for employment on future camp staffs. The
application process and interviews for camp staff are ongoing.
Individuals interested in the Counselor in Training Program
should complete the Camp Staff & CIT Application indicating
their interest in the CIT Program. The Camp Staff & CIT
Application for employmnet can be obtained from the Greater
Yosemite Council and down-loaded from the council web site.
