What is being taught in the CLTD program?

• Year One: Quest video series will be shown. It is a series designed to engage youth in discussion of spiritual issues from a Christian perspective. The sessions are designed to offer insight to the Christian faith, answer questions and spark discussions: Who is God?, Motivation, Sin, Repentance, Spiritual Toolbox. There will also be activities to build relationships and have some fun!!
• Year Two: There will be service opportunities on and off site. There is a deeper look into spiritual disciplines, including prayer, service, evangelism, personal and group devotions. DVD's will be shown with an emphasis on aspects about reaching out to the world around us, personal growth and continued exploration and comprehension of scripture.
• Year Three: CLTD's are paired with senior cabin leaders and activity leaders, this year we put theory into practice. Sessions are designed to prepare for leadership for camp and beyond. There is an out trip during this session spending four days in God's creation, sleeping in tents, back country cooking, river rafting, hiking and a sweet time with God and friends.

Why does my child have to apply for the program and have three references?
The CLTD program is not just another camp. It is meant for people that are serious about learning how to be leaders in the camp community and in other areas of their lives. Having the references enforces the fact the CLTD is going to be serious about what they are at camp to learn and that they will be able to live within the tight community of other CLTD's

The CLTD program runs for two weeks, does my child spend the weekend at camp?
No, the CLTD's leave the camp on Friday night when the campers are leaving the camp. They will return on Sunday at the start of the new camp. There is no supervision during the weekends for them.
