The CIT Program
What is a CIT?
A Camper In Transition (CIT) is a camper gaining exposure to staff responsibilities and training in hopes of someday becoming a counselor.
How do I become a CIT?
CIT’s are campers who have attended Hilltop and been exemplar campers, showing tremendous spirit, initiative and leadership each summer and have been asked by the directors to participate in the CIT program.
What is the CIT program like?
· The CIT Director will be your guide and will have weekly meetings to discuss your progress.
· You will be living in a cabin with the younger campers so you can assist the staff with the daily tasks and care of the campers and cabin.
· You will participate in intensives as campers and be assigned to cabin activities to assist staff.
· You will plan and run an evening activity every two weeks with your fellow CIT’s, with designated staff to oversee it.
· You will participate in all activities, special days and events in and out of the cabin.
· You will spend a day assisting in the support areas of camp, ie. wellness center, maintenance, food service
· You will have the opportunity to spend another summer at camp learning about yourself and those around you as you face new challenges.
· You must attend camp for 4 or 8 week sessions.
