The Counselor In Training (CIT) program has been designed to give individuals direct experience learning about camp operations. All CIT’s are responsible for having the applicable Summerscape Camp registration paperwork completed prior to registration. Through this program participants will have the opportunity to learn concepts such as but not limited to: Resumes and Job Applications, Job Interviews, Planning and Implementing activities, Working with different age groups and abilities, Learning about day-to-day camp operations, Learn about basic medical training, Shadow various camp staff on a daily basis, Receive weekly evaluations on performance... and more!
Important Note: All CIT’s are considered to be campers of the Summerscape Camp program due to their age. As a participant paying a fee to participate (and non-employee of the Town of Rocky Hill), CIT’s and their families are expected to adhere to the program outlines. The CIT program is NOT intended for those looking to accumulate volunteer service hours as this is intended to be a structured career development program for those interested in becoming Camp Counselors in the future.
We currently offer 2 options to participate in the CIT program. You may enroll in a 3 week session (offered twice), or a 6 week session. For those who enroll in the 6 week session, those CIT’s will receive a more advanced curriculum for weeks 4 through 6.
