Inspired by past campers who wanted to give back (and didn’t want to stop coming to Day Camp!), the Leaders in Training Program gives teens the opportunity to mentor and teach younger campers while learning about science and leadership skills.

All LITs will participate in a training to get them ready for the summer. LIT training will take place on Friday, June 2, 2023 at the Environmental Learning Center in Brighton, CO. LITs will sign up to assist with one or more Day Camps. Prospective LITs should apply to the program online. Space is extremely limited, so we encourage early applications. Furthermore, once they have completed the LIT training during summer our LIT’s have the opportunity to help with our Winter break camp as well as other community events!
