AFC Arts Adventure Camp
Leader-in-Training - LIT Program

Youth who are 14 years of age (by December 31, 2007) are eligible to participate in the camp's Leader-In-Training (LIT)Program. The LIT Program is a unique opportunity for youth who still enjoy camp, to learn and practice the skills necessary to be an effective camp leader. Throughout the 3-week program LITs will learn and practice skills that focus on teamwork, responsibility, communication, problem-solving and program planning while enjoying a variety of arts activities.

Counsellor-in-Training - CIT Program

The Counsellor-in-Training (CIT) Program is designed for our most mature campers with the goal of teaching and practicing the skills of becoming an effective camp counsellor. Participants develop a wide range of leadership skills through a series of workshops that focus on working with children, dealing with challenging behaviour, communication, teamwork, professionalism and program planning. Throughout the 3-week program CITs are placed in a cabin group where they are given the opportunity to practice their skills with regular feedback from the CIT Program Coordinator.

Entrance into the CIT Program is by application. As space is limited selected candidates will be interviewed to determine acceptance. The camp selects youth who demonstrate responsibility, positive role modeling and take an active interest in their own development. CITs are eligible to receive their volunteer hours for high school through this program.
