Junior Leadership Program

Camp Tiffin’s Junior Leadership Program is a two-week camp for 13-15-year-olds, which builds valuable leadership skills and provides hands-on practical experiences.

First, there will be one week of training with an environmental outdoor educator where they will learn how to work with children and maintain a leadership role.

With training underway, the junior leaders will volunteer for a second week, paired with a camp counsellor whom they will work with for the week. That way they get to know the children in their group, and develop relationships. No fee applies for the practicum style week as they are getting practical experience via volunteering.

Together, the 2 weeks earns them a Junior Leadership certificate. This is a certificate unique to Camp Tiffin!
