Counselor in Training Program (CIT)

Do you love spending time on the water?  Are you passionate about maritime heritage or the environment?  Do you want to help us share this message with campers and the public?  The Gundalow Company will offer 10 CIT spots during the summer for high school students to develop new skills as a Gundalow Apprentice or CIT.

Ages: 14-17 for CIT

The Gundalow Company CIT programs teach high school students new skills through specific trainings and hands-on work alongside our crew, camp staff and volunteers.  Our professional crew act as mentors and guides to facilitate each CIT towards meeting their own individual goals.  Our CIT programs give students the opportunity to learn more about running and planning a successful week of camp. CITs will be expected to attend one full day of training and at least one full week of summer camp after the training. This training includes time handling our small boats, sailing aboard the Gundalow, goal setting, team building with other apprentices and more.

Gundalow Counselor in Training (CIT) – following training, most CITs select 1 week (or more) of summer camp to complete their hand-on apprentice training.  Throughout the week CITs will work with the lead counselor to design and manage a group of campers for the week.  CITs can also select to do 2 half day weeks of camp instead.

There is a sliding fee for each apprentice that includes a t-shirt and all training and materials.
