LIT, CIT, CIT Adventure and 5-week Adventure and Sr. Adventure participants will have the opportunity to complete Ontario High School credits during their leadership programs at camp.

YMCA Camp Pine Crest has been working hard with the YMCA Academy to develop unique programs that would not otherwise be found in the regular school system and will help students to be more successful towards their educational goals. Credit programs were successfully piloted in 2011 with over 120 students successfully completing their course and we are happy to move forward with this option for participants in 2012. There is an administration cost of $200.00 for those wishing to participate in the credit component of their Pine Crest leadership program.

*Please note: in order to be eligible for these courses, all students must provide the camp with copies of their recent transcripts. Please contact Andy Seto if you have any questions andy.seto@ymcagta.org or 1-877-878-9622.
