Camper In Leadership Training – C.I.L.T.
The Camp Cherith in the Carolinas, Camper in Leadership Training is a three-year leadership program for high school aged campers. C.I.L.T.s gain all of the necessary skills to be exceptional leaders in the camp setting. Our C.I.L.T.s grow up to become great counselors and then great leaders both at camp and at home. In addition to spending a week at camp each year, C.I.L.T.s attend a weekend retreat in early spring at the Clemson Outdoor Lab.
