The LIT program is intended for teens, ages 13-15, interested in working with children in a structured day camp setting. LITs receive training in areas such as working with children, leadership and communication skills, developing and leading activities, and more. This program typically runs in two-week sessions for the first 8 weeks of Camp Garrett. Leaders in training are required to fill out an LIT application and complete an interview with the directors to practice on the job skills. This program features a field trip at the end of each session!
