AWARENESS OF OTHERS
Counselor in Training Program (CIT)
CIT Director: LaVenus Harried
Teens entering grades 9 and 10
Our Counselor in Training (CIT) program is designed for those entering
9th and 10th grade who want first-hand leadership and staffing experience,
while still enjoying time for social interaction. Our CITs participate in team-building,
leadership training, and experience a summer they will never forget. CITs must commit to two weeks with us,
but we encourage them to spend all four weeks to get the full experience. Each week will focus on a new set of skills
and development topics. Our program is cumulative, so the lessons are progressive from 9th grade to 10th grade.

Hilbert Post-Camp
Campers entering grades K-8
Week 9: August 13 - 17
Monday - Friday, 9:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.
Because 8 weeks just isn’t enough, campers join us for
an extra week to celebrate the end of the summer out at
Camp Hilbert. Athletics, arts and crafts, camping, team-
building and more will be on the menu. Post-camp will have
different programming than Camp Hilbert and will have more free-play time as well. Post-camp campers will get to experience some
surprise special activities throughout the week. Note: The only transportation stop during post-camp is the Weinstein JCC.
