Apply to be a Counselor-in-Training!

With emphasis in service, initiative, and leadership, The City of Palo Alto Counselor-in-Training (CIT) program provides opportunities for teens ages 13 and 14 to take lead in our historic summer camps. CITs are mentored by camp staff, build leadership skills, gain experience, and earn community service hours all while working with children in a safe, engaging, and fun space. Lead in hikes, swimming, arts and crafts, camp overnights, and so much more! With many of our counselors starting off as CITs, the Counselor-in-Training allows you to lead the way toward summer fun!
