A CIT, or counselor in training, is a person who is at camp the year between his senior camper year and his first year as a counselor. CITs stay in different cabins in lower camp and sometimes upper camp with another counselor. During their year CITs learn how to be counselors at Birch Rock. This includes learning how to teach activities, have a cabin to look after, and training to be a life guard training. CITs do a lot of work around camp like washing dishes and sweeping the driveway as well. Years ago, CITs were not assigned to individual cabins, they instead stayed in Pete's Palace. Pete's is still where the CIT plaques are put up every year. CIT's can not earn badges but from time to time a CIT will swim his Whale if he was unable to his senior camper year. When this happens the time is put up on the plaques in Pete's.
