Leadership-in-Training at CAMP TOGA

Only offered at the Saratoga Springs YMCA, 290 West Ave., Saratoga Springs, NY 12866.

The Camp TOGA LIT program is for rising 7th through 9th graders.

This program will help prepare rising 7th through 9th graders for future leadership roles when working with children in summer camps. LIT's will gain experience leading camp activities, learn how to interact with children and peers in a leadership capacity and what it means to be a part of a camp community. Camp TOGA LIT’s will learn the values of caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility as well as the joys of working with children through interactive and hands-on experience. 

During registration, all LIT campers will be placed on a waitlist. The camp director will reach out to each family with a short questionnaire to ensure this program is a good fit. 

The LIT program will run during the third week of camp (7/21/2025) through the 7th week of camp (8/15/2025) for a total of 5 weeks. LIT campers are encouraged to attend at least 2 weeks of the program so they can understand the true camp leadership experience.

  • Cost: $320 per week for members, $340 per week for non members
