PROGRAM ELEMENTS:
Necessary Skill Training—CITs will participate in programming to develop skills to be a staff member. Training is designed to support CITs as they transition from camper to staff member. Topics will include: homesickness, camper inclusion, how to identify and prevent bullying, development of camper listening skills, health and safety, how to lead programming, and hands-on counseling experience and opportunities to build relationships and serve as role models for younger campers. CITs also help run drills and lead large group activities in sports majors. They will work hands-on with our counselors, coaches and leadership team, who will support and mentor them throughout the summer.
Sports Participation: CITs will participate in their sport majors during Session 1. Sport major time will transition with an emphasis on coaching younger campers.
CIT Program Highlights: Participants during the summer will have exciting and unique activities to CITs. Highlights include offsite Tikkun Olam projects, planning CIT Shabbat, Intersession, and working alongside camp staff!
