The Leaders In Training (LIT) program is a volunteer program offered by GGYC. It offers leadership experience that occurs during both our March Break and Summer Camps. The program provides participants the opportunity to work alongside Go Green staff and community partners. LITs will develop instructional skills for our daily camp programs including archery, baseball, basketball, ecoarts (arts & crafts), dodgeball, icebreakers, games, cricket, robotics, and much more!

The Go Green LIT program is geared towards youth between the ages of 14 – 16. They will be mentored by our camp counsellors & leadership staff.

Based on parent, camper, and staff feedback, we have recognized that we needed to create more meaningful opportunities for our growing youth in our community to get more involved with Go Green Youth Centre. This program is geared towards high school students (ages 14 - 16) who want to broaden their volunteering experience. Our mission is to empower and inspire our future generation with the skills they learn in our program.

This program is an opportunity to gain experience working with children, especially in a day camp setting.

The Leaders in Training program will provide you with the following:

• LIT T-Shirts (summer uniform)

• Leadership Opportunities and Guest Speakers

• New Friends

• University & College Mentors
