Bigger Kids, Bigger Challenges

Here’s the chance for your 11 – 13 year old to develop leadership, team building and social skills. Our Jr Counselor Program at The Children’s Courtyard give older children the inspiration and motivation they need to become better citizens, and have fun doing it. Jr. Counselors plan and implement special events, participate in community service projects and work with other counselors in the area. Along with the special activities and field trips just for their ages, this makes the Jr. Counselor Program a real stand-out for summer.

Children participate in:

• Community involvement and volunteerism
• Planning and implementing activities for younger school age groups
• Mentoring early readers
• Assisting in creating calendars, newsletters etc. for school-age programs
• Slumber parties and overnight outings
• Adopting an assisted living center

This group meets regularly with the other Jr. Counselors in their region. Occasionally, there are even area-wide events planned for this group.
