Specially selected and trained staff members work to nurture and develop campers' self-esteem, rather than competitive expertise in a particular sport or skill.
Elementary / Junior High / All Ages Camp Sessions: First through ninth graders are grouped by similar ages and participate in traditional summer camps activities. Sessions vary in length from six to ten nights.
CAMP LEADERSHIP CIT/LIT PROGRAMS: Leaders-in-Training Leadership Development Program: Rising tenth graders live together in a cabin and participate in traditional camp activities. LIT's also participate in special leadership training and teambuilding. As skills and confidence increase, LIT's assist with leading some aspects of camp programs.
The LIT Program is a stepping stone for becoming a member of Camp Gravatt's staff but does not guarantee selection as for staff in future summers. The program spans two sessions with a break in between.
