CIT Program
As campers grow, so do their interests. Teenagers typically begin to consider alternative programs as the camp season draws near. Here at Frogbridge, we offer two distinct options to our 9th grade campers. One of these options is our L.I.T. (Leader In Training) Program.
Once a camper becomes an L.I.T. he/she will work with different team members throughout the day, developing a sense of responsibility while learning the essence of caring for others through hands on involvement. All L.I.T.'s will be placed in age groups that interest them the most. L.I.T.'s will assist their teachers or counselors for four periods each day, which will be followed by a group lunch period, a group swim period, and three activity periods. L.I.T.'s will also attend one weekly off-site trip to exciting destinations similar to those listed below.
All current L.I.T.'s are assessed each summer, and acceptance into our 10th grade C.I.T. Program is predicated on those assessments. Frogbridge Day Camp reserves the right to accept or deny entry into these programs based on past assessments or current interviews with new campers. Once a camper successfully completes our C.I.T. Program, he/she will be given a Frogbridge Day Camp C.I.T. Diploma, as well as a contract as an assistant counselor for the following summer!
Once a camper becomes a CIT, he/she will work with different Staff Members throughout the day, developing a sense of responsibility and learning the essence of caring for others through observation and hands on involvement. CIT's will be placed in age groups that interest them the most. All CIT's will assist their counselors for 5 periods every day, followed by lunch, swim and two activity periods. CIT's also attend one weekly off-site trip and will participate in the CIT Annual Luncheon at the conclusion of the summer. Lastly, all CIT's are invited to join their peers on a two day, one night overnight trip where they will have time to reflect on their summer and socialize with other campers their age. All current CIT's are assessed each summer, and acceptance into our camp staff is predicated on those assessments. Frogbridge Day Camp reserves the right to accept or deny entry into these programs based on past assessments or current interviews with new campers. If a camper successfully completes the CIT Program they are given a Frogbridge CIT diploma as well as a contract as an assistant counselor for the following summer!
CIT campers will attend one off-site trip each week to amazing destinations throughout the summer. Here is just a sample of previously attended trips:
- Broadway, NYC
- Dorney Park
- Mountain Creek
- Medieval Times
- Breakwater Beach
- Blackbeard's Cave
- Citizens Bank Park, Philadelphia
- Great Wolf Lodge, Pennsylvania
- ...and so much more!!!
I loved going on the weekly trips -- they were so much fun, especially the overnight to Great Wolf Lodge!
