Summer Camp LIT Program
Our Leader in Training (LIT), program, is for youth entering into high school (Grade 9 – Grade 12) that have an interest in working with children and developing their leadership skills. As an LIT, you would spend a week (or more!), working directly with children in our summer camp or related programs. You will create great memories, make friendships with other youth your age, and learn from our skilled staff. This program will allow you to earn volunteer hours and also develop the necessary skills and experience in order to become a camp or program leader yourself, one day! SNA is looking for volunteers who are responsible and enthusiastic about learning how to be a leader!
LIT Applications are open February 5th to February 26 2025.
LIT Age Requirements
Youth must be entering high school in the fall of 2025 (Grades 9, 10, 11 or 12) to apply for the LIT program
How many hours will I earn?
You will earn 40 hours after successfully completing 1 week of volunteering with summer camp.
How does the application process work?
The application period is from February 5th to February 26th. Once an application has been completed, applicants will be invited to a short drop in interview in March/April. Successful applicants will be contacted after their interview. Mandatory LIT training will be held in May. This is when LIT’s will learn their responsibilities as well as their week assignments. Due to high applicant numbers, we are not able to guarantee that all applicants will be able to volunteer.
Can I choose which weeks I volunteer?
SNA staff will keep your summer availability in mind when making the summer schedule. Please communicate any summer vacation or plans that you are aware of. Please note that SNA is not able to guarantee scheduling preferences such as volunteering with a friend, etc.
