Camper in Leadership Training Program at Owl Camp

LandPaths is delighted to be offering the Camper in Leadership Training (C.I.L.T.) Program once again at Owl Camp in 2013!  The C.I.L.T. program is designed specifically for students aged 11-13 who are looking for a challenging outdoor camp experience where they can learn new skills, enhance leadership potential, and foster a lasting sense of community among their peers. Campers in this age group will engage in a week-long advanced project (such as building a floatable raft from scratch and then launching it!), as well as serve as mentors to the younger campers.  C.I.L.T.S are the ONLY YOUTH invited to camp out at the property on Thursday Night, a meaningful opportunity that allows for sunrise canoe-adventures, night-hikes and sleeping under the stars (or in a tent!)   Click here to read more...
