Counselors-In-Training
The TCPUD Parks & Recreation's Summer Online Registration opens Tuesday, May 5th, 2026 at 10am for TCPUD Service Area Residents and 12pm for Non-Residents.
Description
What better way to gain great life skills, while having fun? Be a Counselor-in Training! This program is designed for campers interested in becoming future Counselors. CITs engage in fun activities like camp songs, games and crafts, and assist camp counselors with day to day activities including looking after the safety of campers. New to this year, on Thursdays (except for 7/16), CITs will meet at Camp Sky Lil’ Pines and assist staff with camp songs, games, crafts and more with our beginner campers! This program is a fantastic opportunity to build essential leadership skills and enhance problem-solving abilities.
Field trips only for CITs will be held on Tuesdays and will attend Wednesday Field Trips with Grades 1-6 (unless otherwise noted). Camp overnights are optional for Sessions C & F, and there is no camp on Fridays after the overnight. Maximum 18 spots available for each week/session.
To ensure a great camp experience for all, recurring and or excessive behavioral challenges may result in suspension or expulsion from camp.
Please pack these important items for your child every day:
- Sack Lunch and Snacks
- Water Bottle (Children must have their own refillable water bottle)
- Sunscreen
- Closed-toe Shoes
- Water Shoes for the Beach
- Bathing Suit and Towel
To alleviate a massive collection in our Lost & Found items, it is highly encouraged to write your camper's name on all the gear they bring to camp. Lost and Found items may not be saved after week’s end.
Parent Information Letters will be emailed each week prior to the start of each camp session:
