Leader in Training

This summer Camp Kintail is offering three unique Leader in Training programs. All three programs teach skills in leadership, communication, conflict resolution, camper behaviour, special needs, and worship planning. In each program, participants have the opportunity to work with counsellors in a cabin to develop their counselling skills. The age range for this program is 16-17 (can be 15 and completed grade ten).

The programs that run through the month of July and the month of August include a week of out-tripping. One month will go on a canoe trip while the other group will go hiking. Through these trips, participants will learn outdoor leadership skills and develop their confidence in tripping. The leaders of this program are the amazing Cirque and Chimpanzee.

The program that runs through the middle of the summer has a special emphasis on music and art leadership. They will go on a short overnight, but their main emphasis will be on developing skills in music, art, drama, and guitar. During Kintail Express, these LITs will put on a musical production and help lead camper activities. They will also have special guests come to teach them about their areas of expertise in various art disciplines. The leaders for this group are the creative Pacific and Desert.

Please see the Kintail website – www.campkintail.ca – for an LIT application form. The deadline is extended to March 7th and the LIT Wannabe Day is March 15th.
