Cairn LIT Applications due March 19
Being a Leader In Training at Cairn is a wonderful way to develop leadership skills that will benefit you at camp, at school, in programs and activities and within your communities. As a LIT at Cairn, you can spend a month living at camp and learning hard skills, such as canoeing, tripping and belaying, as well as soft skills such as leading TLC, running camp programs and nurturing campers. This is definitely one month of camp that you do not want to miss! Plus, being a LIT is an important and useful step to take before applying to be a staff member ...

Calling all Alumni
[caption id="attachment_3125" align="alignleft" width="333" caption="Photo: Travis "Zoic" Allison"][/caption] We all know that camp creates lasting memories and lifelong friendships.
