If you are interested in being a camp counselor someday, this is an opportunity you don't want to miss!    Counselor in Training (CIT) is a program for teens desiring future leadership roles as summer camp counselors at YMCA Camp Duncan.  The CIT Program is an advanced program for those 16-17 years old who have attended Camp Duncan or another camp at least one summer. 
     The CIT Program has many advanced components. CITs learn much of the same material covered during our summer seasonal staff training.   The CIT program is a great opportunity for exceptional campers to develop their leadership skills. We provide hands-on learning allowing teens to slowly work into responsible roles leading children. We assist them in developing their communication and organizational skills.
     During the second week of this 2 week program, CIT’s “shadow" a senior counselor, live in a cabin with younger campers and will be expected to assist counselors in program activities, cabin life, and the day to day jobs of working in a summer camp.   
     Our goal is to provide our CITs with positive experiences which will enhance their personal growth and build self-esteem.
