      dude last summer was my first year as a CILT (same as CIT) and it was life-changing, hands-down the best two weeks of my life. I met incredible people as well as spent time with the same people I grew up with, and even fell in love. it's wild that I spend all year waiting for this time but damn it's worth it. you'll be old enough before you know it! there are no words for how special it is to see camp from a different perspective. everything you don't like as a camper you'll love as a CIT. sorry this comment is so long, but let me know if you have any questions or anything because I'm always down to talk about camp :))

    I’m staffing BSA scout camp this summer for 5 weeks so trying to figure out the best tips and efficiency for packing so I have everything I need. I have done scout camp before but only for a week at a time. It is interesting seeing all the videos and tips for typical summer camps (not scouting) since they plan for a completely different vibe, but I’m getting tidbits to use for my camp too.
    I never knew how many people apparently travel quite a distance (sometimes over the Atlantic) to staff a summer camp.

    This is so different to my packing for camp tho my camps are scout camps so I live in a sleeping bag and we’re not allowed shorts or jeans and no one brings pillows because they get ruined and we all just sleep in our clothes we also pretty much only wear walking boots (I’ve gone through 3 pairs) it is true that you can never have enough socks i once went to a 4 day camp and took 6 pairs of socks and didn’t have enough

    I'm going to be a counselor soon. I'm going to be an LT at my camp which is like a CIT.

    I always feel weird going somewhere with so much luggage, but I'm going as a councelor too this year, so I'll have to deal with it xD

      Yeah I brought more stuff than I needed but I'd rather be overprepared for being a camp counselor!

    Hello! I was interested in becoming a summer camp counselor and I wanted to know how old you have to be to be one? I'll be starting high school this year. I always wanted to know if you needed background experience in order to be one because I've never gone to camp before but love being around kids! Thank you!!

      It really depends! Most overnight camps you have to be over 18, but most local daycamps are 16. They normally want you to have some experience with kids because it's a lot of responsibility!
