Part Of The Staff Team
LIT's play a key role on our staff team and serve in a variety of areas including junior counseling, events, activities, and support staff. This is excellent preparation for future leadership roles, particularly in camp, church and other ministries.
Option One: LIT
Requires a minimum 8 week commitment. Support Goal: $3200 (highter if serving longer than 8 weeks) and Qwanoes contributes $500 if needed to reach the goal (see "Financial Assistance Programs" for more information).
Option Two: LIT-Lite
Requires a minimum 4 week commitment.
Both Options:
The weeks of Staff Training (June 22 to 29) and Juniors #1 (July 14 to 20) are required. The remaining weeks of the LIT program will include serving as a junior counselor (for 1 of 4 weeks) and in the areas of events, activities, or operations support. There is also a special option (but highly recommended) training weekend on May 4-6 to help form our LIT group and begin training.
