 The transition from camper to staff begins with the Counsellor in Training (CIT) Program. At Wahanowin, we give our CIT's a lot of responsibility and the opportunity for hands on experience with campers in cabin groups, as well as placements at activity areas. We don't forget that this is their last "camper" summer, therefore exciting excursions, special programs and good times remain integral to the experience. Our CIT's are the future leaders of Camp Wahanowin.
Limited Enrollment
This unique program is offered to a limited number of young people in their 16th year who have completed grade 10.
Living Arrangements
An exclusive Village located in an ideal area of camp is the home of our CIT's.
Cabin & Specialty Rotations
Each CIT will have 2 rotations in camper cabins and 3 on activity areas.
Lectures, Discussions & Seminars
The CIT Coordinator and Wahanowin Senior Staff will organize discussions and seminars on various topics for CIT's which will enhance the practical hands-on experience they receive.
 Excursions
The CIT's will take "special" excursions and spend time together on supervised trips to Killarney Provincial Park, Orillia, movies and Wasaga Beach. A highlight of every CIT's summer is the amazing three day White Water Rafting trip on the Ottawa River.
Pre-Camp Training
All CIT's must attend our Staff Pre-Camp Training Program prior to the Campers' arrival. The first major excursion of the summer occurs during pre-camp; the three day Killarney Canoe Trip. This is the opportunity for CIT's to work together, forming strong bonds, positive interactions and creating the teamwork necessary to establish a successful unit.
 Additional Aspects of the Program
The CIT's will be involved in a variety of additional programs which will include; CIT Friday Night Service, CIT Scavenger Hunt/Colour War Program, Exclusive CIT Banquet & Awards Dinner, Planning and organizing the Closing Banquet, CIT Sports teams and leagues, All Staff Programming and Staff Curfew, plus many more "perks" and special events.
