| Counselor In Training (C.I.T.) Program Click here to download a C.I.T. Job Description Click here to download a C.I.T./Volunteer Application Are you a little too young to work at camp, but a little to old to attend camp? Do you want to continue to enjoy the fun and excitement that camp has to offer? We have a program just for you. When you are part of 4-H Camp Kidwell's C.I.T. Program you get to be part of our amazing staff, gain valuable experience, train to become a super counselor, and most importantly enjoy the fun and excitement of camp. What do C.I.T.'s do? C.I.T.s main focus is two fold, first and foremost, they gain valuable experience and training to become our counselors of the future. C.I.T.'s spend time with counselors and other staff members to observe how camp programming works and gain valuable experience. This job shadowing program ranges from living in the cabin with the counselor and campers and sharing meals with the cabin group to assisting in activities. The second and most time consuming part of the program is working in the kitchen helping to prepare, set up, serve and clean up meals. C.I.T.'s typically will work in the kitchen for two meals a day, washing dishes, setting tables, serving food, and cleaning up. Additional, C.I.T.'s are occasionally given the opportunity work with a specific camp program, such as horseback riding or day camp. When this happens they spend the entire week working with this program. Becoming a C.I.T.
