Leadership Focus is for teens who are excited about leadership, interested in working with kids, or who want to be a camp counselor in the future. This two-week session will combine a traditional camp experience with hands-on leadership opportunities and skills workshops. This program is a great introduction to Sealth’s Counselor-In-Training and Riding-Staff-In-Training programs.
What to Expect
During your campers’ 2 weeks at camp, they can expect to spend between 2 and 4 hours each day on leadership-related activities. They’ll do training workshops on leadership, get a chance to facilitate activities for younger campers, lead songs and assist with First Night Fun, as well as plan and lead an All-Camp Event. Leadership Focus campers will also work on a service project to benefit Sealth. But don’t worry – there is plenty of time left to do all of the camp activities they love – archery, paddle boarding, challenge course, and more!
Schedule
Leadership Focus takes place over a two-week session at Sealth.
For the 2-week Double Session, they’ll stay at camp on the break between sessions – there are just a handful of campers who stay over on this break, so it’s a rare chance to experience camp nearly empty!
Future Leadership Opportunities
After completion of Leadership Focus, teens are encouraged to apply for the Counselor-In-Training (CIT) or Riding-Staff-In-Training (RSIT) program. The Leadership Focus Program is not required to apply for and become a CIT or RSIT, but it will help you gain skills that are useful in the CIT/RSIT program.
