Oasis Counselor-In-Training (CIT) Program for Teens in Grades 10 and 11
From Camper to Counselor
How It Works
As a CIT, your teen will spend most of the day with hands-on leadership activities, working with one of the camp age groups:
- ESIC (ages 3-5 years old)
- Lower Camp (entering 1st or 2nd grade)
- Upper Camp (entering 3rd to 6th grade)
Each afternoon, the CIT’s will come together for peer activities. This gives them an opportunity to enjoy recreational activities, socialize with peers, and gain additional job training. They will even have some opportunities to join some travel camp excursions.
What does the CIT Training Cover?
Oasis Day Camps are founded and led by youth development professionals. We’ve developed a summer-long training program for our oldest campers that includes:
- Child behavior
- Leadership skills
- Group management
- Team collaboration
CIT’s are encouraged to keep a journal to record and reflect on their experiences during the summer. All training is included in your tuition.
