positions. All participants must be entering 8th or 9th grade
and must be past Walden West summer campers. Our program includes challenges to
develop leadership skills; group activities to foster team building; leadership
experience with children ages 5 and 6; a community service project; climbing
Indian Rock; a Thursday camping trip; and swimming. Campers may only register for 1 LIT session. After participating
in the LIT week they may be a counselor the following year. Leaders in Training
