“As a CIT you have the responsibility and freedom of being a camp counselor, while still having the fun of being a camper. The relationships I made were the best part of the week. After the day was over, we sat on the front porch of our cabin and talked about what happened during the day. We could have solved all the world’s problems sitting out there and eating trail mix.”
