TURN YOUR SUMMER INTO SOMETHING MORE

Summer camp isn’t just for campers. It’s also an opportunity for teens to build confidence, develop leadership skills, gain real-world experience and make a difference for younger kids. Counselors in Training (CITs) get a hands-on introduction to leadership and what it takes to be a great camp counselor, while Camp Counselors take on greater responsibility helping lead activities, create memorable experiences and make every camper feel welcome. It’s a summer filled with friendships, responsibility, fun and experiences that can help prepare teens for whatever comes next.
