LIT Program (Ent. Gr. 9-11)

This new program has been in the works this spring and we are thrilled to be ready to debut it this summer! Full-time program director Caleb Wragge, our new addition to the camp staff, will help oversee this program. 

The LIT program will provide both fun and learning for students who have completed 8th, 9th, or 10th grade. It will also allow students with busy summer schedules to have more options for weeks to be at camp.

We will run a LIT track with limited spots during the camp weeks listed below. Scholarship Requests can also be made for the LIT Program.

Many camps around the country integrate leader-in-training programs into their overall leadership development culture at their camp. We envision our leader-in-training program to help build a bridge between being a camper and becoming counselor-in-trainings and lead counselors. We also hope that adding this pathway allows kids to move into leadership at a pace that is right for them. Some students as soon as eighth grade are eager and ready to take on an introductory LIT position at camp, while other students would prefer to have an LIT experience a year or two later.
