Develop your skills to become a future camp counselor while working with campers at the Albemarle Acres Summer Program. CIT’s will learn about behavior management, child development, leadership styles, camper safety, activity planning and more.
Daily meetings and training sessions with the CIT Director will help CIT’s learn about becoming a camp counselor and give CIT’s the opportunity to ask questions and share experiences with their peers. CIT's will work with camper groups each day to practice what they learn in their training sessions.
This summer we will be located at the NEW Lincoln Eliot Elementary School on Jackson Rd in Newton. We are currently working to secure grant funding through the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education to offer the Summer Food Service Program at Albemarle Acres using Newton Public Schools to provide free, healthy lunches for campers, CIT's, and staff that are 18 and under. Additional details will be shared once grant awards are announced in the coming months.
Registration in the CIT program at Albemarle Acres includes a summer swim membership to Gath Pool which can be used throughout the summer.
A First Year CIT has not participated in a CIT program with Newton Parks and Recreation in a previous summer. First Year CIT’s participate in a 2 week training session and may sign up for 1 session at each camp (for example 1 session at Albemarle Acres and 1 session at T-ville Trails).
Returning CIT’s have completed the First Year CIT program at a Newton Parks and Recreation camp in a previous summer. Returning CIT's participate in a 3 week training session and can sign up for one or both Returning CIT sessions at the same camp.
There is a $30.00 non refundable deposit due per session.
