LIT is a one-of-a-kind program at YMCA Camp Weaver that is designed to build leadership skills, group skills, confidence, and character. LIT is meant to be the first step towards being a camp counselor, and is considered a prerequisite for those wishing to enter our selective Counselor-In-Training Program.

LIT is a two-week program for rising 10^th graders. The first week of camp is spent in traditional camp activities for half the day, and leadership training for the other half. During the first week and a half, the group of 10 campers and their counselor will work on a service project for the betterment of camp. Campers will also receive backcountry training, with skills taught ranging from Leave No Trace Camping Ethics, fire building, shelter building, and outdoor cooking. During the second half of week two, our LIT campers depart camp for three days for an outdoor adventure leadership trip. The LITs will plan and execute virtually every aspect of the trip for their group while being facilitated by two staff who are there to supervise and assist as needed—it is the culmination of every leadership skill they have learned and practiced thus far in the program.

CIT is the follow-up to the LIT program for rising 11^th graders, with campers coming to camp for three full weeks. Successful participation in the Camp Weaver LIT program or equivalent leadership training is required before admission to the program. 

The CIT program starts before your teen even arrives at camp. All CITs must submit an application, obtain letters of reference, and schedule their own interview with a Camp Weaver Program Director. Once at camp, the first two weeks of the program are dedicated to learning skills and techniques in managing camper behavior, developing camp activities, and learning games and songs. Our goal with the CIT program is to equip your camper with the tools to be not only a great camp counselor, but develop into a well-rounded person.

If you would like to sign your teen up for these exciting programs or have any questions, please give me a call at the Camp Weaver office or email me at luke@campweaver.org. I believe that all of our campers have the ability to learn leadership skills and excel in both the Leader In Training and Counselor in Training program, and I am excited to see them at camp in any capacity this summer!
