My son has gone to a week-long overnight summer camp every year since 4th grade. He absolutely loves everything about it and had always planned on being an LIT (leader in training) when he was old enough. Its a 3 week program billed as a leadership development program...basically you are an assistant counselor, and then act as the leader for your group the last week.
I have no doubt he would enjoy it, and I always thought it would look good on his college application (he's a junior). He is now saying he doesn't want to give up that much of his summer. Should I push the issue? Would this "leadership development program" stand out on his college application, or would it be just another extra-curricular on the list?
Thank you for your input!!
