LEA's Program

2012 Leadership Application Coming Soon

By participating in the LEA Program on camp, you will have a full four weeks of leadership workshops, teambuilding, lifeguard and belay training, working together as a group, planning activities, participating in daily program areas and a whole lot more!

Being a LEA means that you are willing to commit yourself to learning and to working hard in order to give yourself the opportunity to grow and develop as an individual. You will learn to step outside of your comfort zone and to challenge yourself. You will gain confidence and learn to use and embrace your strengths.

Where else could you build skills as a leader while having fun and making memories along the way!

"The LEA Program is not just another year at camp.  I learned more about myself in these four weeks that I have done all year at school.  The LEA program has awakened my leadership potential. I feel like I can do anything now!"
