YMCA Camp Jackson Senior Teen Camps are for our oldest and most senior campers. Our experienced staff act as guides, facilitating high adventure programs, leadership programs and focus on providing a safe and supportive environment. Time is spent sharing experiences with fellow campers, accomplishing goals as a group and reflecting on each activity. For many of our campers the Senior Teen programs are a stepping stone to becoming a member of Camp Jackson staff. All campers have the opportunity to participate in our high ropes course, rock climbing, canoeing and horseback riding
Counselors in Training - The CIT program concentrates on building the skills needed to be an effective counselor. We emphasize understanding children, respecting diversity, developing leadership and teaching values. During the second week, campers have the opportunity to practice these skills while assisting in a cabin.
Senior Extreme Teen - Senior Extreme Teen is the ultimate extreme experience. Choose your week to focus on either river rafting, rock climbing or a combination of all our extreme programs. We guarantee that you will have an extreme experience and adventure. Pick either a one week or two week adventure that lets you experience the best experiences that Colorado has to offer.
Crew - Can’t get enough of the camping experience? Extend your stay by spending two weeks as part of our crew. Assist in everyday activities such as working with campers, food preparation, clean up and service projects around camp. Crew must be able to commit to one of the two week sessions and have completed the CIT program. If you want to be a Camp Counselor this is the first step - so sign up today!
I'm so glad I decided to come back to camp this year, the crew program is a blast, we spent the morning working with the younger kids, in the afternoon we built a new trail. I can't wait till next summer when I can come back as a counselor!
