Camp CIT Program
Program Details
Every summer we take over 100 kids on fun-filled weeks in the woods. Cook-outs, games, wandering the land, wilderness skills, fire-making and more. Summer camp is a special time of year where we get to spend 5 days outside back-to-back.
Counselors In Training are an essential role within Wolf Tree. You have fun, learn new skills and get experience leading groups. You'll join our Wolf Tree staff in creating a memorable experience for campers during two of our camp weeks.

Weather Cancellation Policy:
Wolf Tree programs happen in all kinds of weather, from the icy and golden days of winter, to the sunny and stormy days of summer. Given that our programs occur outdoors, we may need to cancel due to multiple factors that include extreme cold or wind chills, strong winds, lightning, unsafe driving conditions, and others. If we need to cancel program days, we will do our best to schedule a make-up day if possible.
We are unable to provide refunds for weather cancellations. Our wonderful staff commit themselves to each program day, and take time to prepare for our programs in many ways - it's important to us to honor our staff's commitment to our programming, regardless of the weather conditions on a given day. By choosing a Wolf Tree program, you are supporting our mission and values and the time and efforts of our team, even when the weather has other plans. Thank you!
