Wrackin’ Around the Beach Week
We’re wrackin around Sanibel’s beach, let the Winter Camp spirit ring, later we’ll have some hot chocolate, and we’ll do some surfing! This year, we’re learning all about the wrack line, aka the line of treasures left behind on the beach from the last high tide. It’s where ghost crabs find their meals, where sand collects to create dunes, and a transitional haven for many coastal creatures. With each new tide comes endless discoveries: sea urchin tests, shells galore, mermaid purses, sponges, and more! Wintertime on Sanibel brings with it chilly water and winds, which makes the winter wrack especially fun to explore. And, of course, it wouldn’t be Winter Camp without our special Give Your Worries to the Sea Ceremony on New Year's Eve. It’s sure to be one for the books – grab your wetsuits, and let’s hit the beach.

Counselor in Training (CIT) Program (Ages 13 to 17)
This program is designed to teach our older campers the skills needed for leadership and future employment. CITs are a vital link between our younger campers and the counselors in our programs. We teach our CITs how to be leaders and positive role models to those around them through theory and practice. We assign duties and create and maintain performance expectations for these young leaders. We treat them with gentleness, love, and respect but show them how to carry out the responsibilities they are now capable of and how to use their abilities to become excellent role models. All CITs will complete an online leadership training course before camp. On any given day, it is hard to tell who is having more fun, the campers or the CITs.
