A job as a CIC counselor is extraordinarily demanding and you should only consider applying for a position if you love working with children. Life at camp requires staff members to sacrifice their normal living habits and serve as role models to our campers. This job is not for everyone! Successful counselors are dynamic, energetic and patient people who thrive on being outdoors and recognize that children need support and encouragement to be responsible adults.

We belive that young people are able to accomplish their goals when they are placed in a non-competitive and supportive environment. All of our activities are geared to the level of the participant and every program is "challenge-by-choice." This means that our campers can choose not to participate in an activity if it makes them uncomfortable. As a counselor a large part of your job is to encourage campers to try new things and push themselves beyond their comfort level. Done thoughtfully and patiently children can overcome their fears and increase their self-respect.
