(CIT) Camper In Training

Purpose Statement

Building whole-hearted, servant-minded teens for Christ-like leadership.

Overview

THE WILDS Camper In Training program exists to develop true biblical leaders by building whole-hearted, servant-minded teens for Christ-like leadership. CIT features detailed biblical teaching sessions emphasizing the progress of growth into Christ-likeness and cultivating a life of influence in the world for Christ.  

 

The first week's sessions are designed to explore the inner qualities of a believer's growth in a whole-hearted love for God. Building on the first week's instruction, the second week targets the outer qualities of life in order to develop a life of service to others and to equip the participants to make an impact for Christ in their home, schools, churches, and neighborhoods.

 

During the second week the teen will be placed into a cabin with peers in order to apply the principles of servant-leadership. Along with scheduled lectures and interactive group discussions, each CITer will be involved in at least two personal interviews with a CIT instructor and a personal evaluation by a trained counselor from THE WILDS.

Health Services

  • We have several registered nurses on campsite and at least one nurse on call 24 hours a day. Special instructions will be given at camp for administering specialized medications if needed. Our Health Service staff is capable of taking care of most minor injuries and illnesses. We have a great working relationship with the hospital in town should there be the need for anything our Health Service people are not set up to handle.
