Counselor-In-Training Program

CIT Program Details

Counselor-In-Training Program (CIT) 
The Counselor-in-Training program at Brimmer and May will provide an opportunity for 14 and 15 year old students (as of June 15) to teach and work with younger campers as apprentice counselors while learning the ropes. CITs (also known as Campers-in-Transition) are under the supervision and direction of experienced professional staff. CITs will get an opportunity to work with each age group, and when appropriate, be asked to lead activities. Weekly meetings provide feedback and guidance throughout the summer.

Requirements
CIT applicants must be available for the full camp day (8:30 - 4:00 pm) and must be available for a minimum of three weeks of camp. CITS can elect to spend the full summer with us. CIT's are also required to attend pre-camp staff orientation.

Counselor-in-Training Program Fees
First Year CITS: $200 per week
Second Year CITS: $100 per week

CIT Application Procedure
New and returning CIT's must submit a Staff Application, and two letters of recommendation. Letters from a current teacher and someone who has seen the CIT candidate work with children are preferred.
