Please check your preferences for which weeks of camp you would like to be a CIT. You may apply for as many weeks as you are able, though we may not accept you for all weeks. If two weeks are equal in preference, you can list them both equally (ex. check June 24-28 and July 1-5 both as "first choice".) Please make sure to check all weeks you are available, since scheduling is tricky.

If you have any friend requests please let us know their first and last name. It may be difficult to assign you the same week as your friend, but we'll do our best. Please note if this is a "make or break" request--for example, if you and your friend live in different states and are coming to CIT specifically to spend time together.
Describe one or two vivid memories you have from being a Forest Floor camper that inspire you to want to be a CIT. *

For new applicants only (you haven't been a CIT before): A Counselor in Training spends most of their time "being of service." CIT's are there to learn, but also to help instructors with a small group of campers. This could include helping supervise children during  free-time, helping setup(or even lead) group games, and any other simple tasks the instructors might ask of you.  What qualities do you think you'll need for these responsibilities?
For returning CIT applicants (you have been a CIT before): What do you feel you can improve on from being a CIT in past years? What are some of your areas for growth?
Why would the camp community benefit from your presence as a CIT? What strengths and gifts do you have to offer? *
What leadership skills and qualities do you hope to learn while being a CIT? *
Anything else you'd like to share with us?
