LEARN, TAP, LEAD... SERVE !
SERVE is the new name of Fiver's program for 17 year-old
participants who have successfully completed the LEARN,
TAP and LEAD programs. Last year, we called
this program CIT or Counselor in Training program. Since
the program involves much more than training to become
a counselor, we have renamed it to more accurately
describe the position. The SERVE team will bring
the spirit of Fiver into action. This program
is your chance to give back to the Fiver community,
to gain valuable work experience and to impact young
Fivers in a positive way.
The SERVE team member role is a paid position and
involves staying at camp for four weeks. During
the remainder of the summer, Fiver is working on providing
paid positions in New York City through Summer Youth
Employment. SERVE team members will help out
in some of the following areas:
Assisting Cabin Counselors
Assisting camp nurse in Health Center
Working in kitchen as assistant cook
or dishwasher
Working with maintenance team
Managing camp office
Working as lifeguard at pool or lake
Assisting Activity Specialists
and Adventure Learning Teachers
Potential SERVE team members will receive a letter
from the Camp Director inviting them to participate. This
program is open only to Fiver participants.
