Counselors In Training (Ages 13-15) 

Our CIT program at the Arrillaga Family Recreation Center is designed for youth ages 13-15. We offer two, four-week CIT sessions during the summer where participants receive an opportunity to contribute to the camp experience in a new way. Interested participants are required to submit a CIT application by the first Friday in April. Applicants will be invited to an interview with the Camp Director in May. Once accepted into the program, CIT’s work hand in hand with camp counselors to create a positive camp experience for all of our campers, while still enjoying all of the fun activities and field trips! During the program, CIT’s will learn to work together to lead crafts, organize and lead games and provide overall support to camp staff. The increased level of responsibility and training provided is designed to facilitate necessary leadership skills required for their first “real” job in the workforce, hopefully as a camp counselor!
