2024 LIT application

Thank you for your interest in an LIT position at Camp Wannacombac. LIT positions are a very important part of Camp Wannacombac. As an LIT at camp, you will be able to experience a unique level of leadership that you would not receive within a troop setting. Most importantly, you will serve as a role model to our Jr Staff, as well as our campers. It is CRUCIAL that you read and understand the Girl and Adult Behavior Agreements, as you will be expected to both adhere to and enforce the behavior outlined in the agreements.
LITs are asked to fill in where needed. These duties may include:

* Openings each day
* Badge workshops
* Kitchen help
* Runner

** LITs will be responsible for leading Jr. Staff during evening activities each night, unless serving in a kitchen help position
** Will need to be available for a pre camp coordination meeting via Zoom/Microsoft teams in late May

Deadline for submission is March 1, 2024
Girls MUST submit 2 letters of recommendation: 1 from your Troop Coordinator, Vice Coordinator or Unit Leader AND 1 from your pastor, youth pastor or small group leader.

Note: Returning Camp LITs do not need letters of recommendation.

Once you have been accepted as a Camp LIT, please register as an adult for the week(s) you are serving.
