The purpose of the Counselor-In-Training (CIT) program at Tumwater Parks and Recreation is to provide, through practical experience and hands-on learning, the skills that are essential to become an effective camp counselor. Teens who wish to be considered for the CIT Program must complete an application and meet with the Recreation Coordinator. At Tumwater Day Camp, CITs will assist counselors as well as other staff members in providing a caring atmosphere and exciting experience for the day camp participants. Camp is always looking to identify future staff prospects and this is a great way to be noticed for possible future employment.
