Campers in Leadership Training  

The Campers in Leadership Training (CILT) program provides a unique educational and practical challenge for high school age campers with leadership potential. Participants will have opportunities to increase their skills and abilities, deepen their knowledge and application of Scripture, and gain a variety of leadership experiences. CILT trains them for future leadership and service in their churches, camps and communities.


CILT 2008


The CILT course is a two step program CILT I and CILT II taken during each of two consecutive summers, plus assignments to complete during the school year between summers.

  Under adult supervision, CILTs gain practical experience by working with younger campers, leading songfests, games, bible studies, and evening programs; helping with cookouts, teaching camp skill; and assisting in camp functions.

CILTs also choose camp activity skills as specialties, progressing through acheivement to high levels of proficiency, which may include certification from national organizations. CILTs learn to demonstrate and teach their specialty skills to younger campers.

The CILT program is offered to high school campers at Camp Cherith camps across Canada and the United States. Camp Cherith is the camping ministry of Pioneer Clubs, a Christ centered weekday club for local church ministry. Space in the program is limited.



CILT ONE
CILT TWO 		$1,125.00 (taxes included)

The reason for the increase in fees is due to a recent court ruling that all Christian camps are now required to charge GST on all our fees. There had been a court ruling a number of years ago exempting us from the GST, however the CRA attacked the GST issue from a different tact and we are now obligated to charge and submit GST.
