Leaders in Training Program
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.”
- Marianne Williamson
LIT Weekends
Once a season we host an LIT Weekend or Adventure Day. These involve leadership based activities that may include fire building, paddling, caving, teambuilding, hiking, self-development, games, meal making, and more! We welcome youth ages 10-14yrs to join us either one day, or from Saturday to Sunday with a supervised sleepover. Meals are included when they sleepover. This is an opportunity for youth to make new friends, challenge themselves, have a fun weekend away from home, and to join our year-round LIT program that includes summer camp volunteering and community based initiatives.
UPCOMING DATES: April 27-28, 2024
Summer camp LIT program
Our volunteer LIT program prepares 12-14 year olds for leading groups of children in nature programming and excursions.
LITs will support staff in supervising camp participants and delivering programming, with opportunities to participate in all of the programs. LIT candidates are youth who enjoy being outdoors and are interested in learning to lead groups of children safely through adventure and fun. They will be challenged to facilitate a program and will acquire valuable resume skills.
We encourage LITs to reach out to us directly by calling 519-599-6655 or emailing director@forestpreschool.ca.
Leaders in Training will undergo an interview to be selected for the LIT Program. Interviews will be conducted after their application/interest is received. If the interview does not go well you will be refunded the fees. LITs will be required to commit to assisting in a minimum of 2 weeks of camp.
2024 Rates
