Through interactive workshops, skill development sessions, and in-service training, participants will gain practical knowledge of what it takes to lead at camp. From goal setting and teamwork, to building campfires and facilitating activities, you’ll learn the essentials of program planning, communication, and leadership in action.
By the end of the program, you’ll have built the skills, confidence, and experience needed to take on new challenges, and maybe even join the CNIB Lake Joe team as an official counsellor in the future!
Important program points:
- This two-week program is available for people who are blind or have low vision and their sighted peers.
- The program includes a two-night camping trip to a local provincial park where participants will take part in team-building exercises and outdoor skill development.
- Prospective participants must fill out a supplementary application and participate in an interview with program staff prior to acceptance.
- Successful completion of this program guarantees an interview for future camp staff positions but does not guarantee employment.
