JCC camps share a commitment to provide the highest quality camping experiences within pluralistic Jewish environments. JCC camps and their programs, sizes, specialties and facilities reflect the JCC Movement's diversity and their own organization's mission.
BB Camp’s Leadership Training Program is a six-week co-ed residential experience designed to provide leadership opportunities that prepare teens to become staff members at Camp, as well as productive members of their home community. The LTP program includes: internship in all aspects of a counselor’s job at Camp, participation in service projects, training sessions on such topics as basic child development and behavior management, counseling techniques and best practices, communication and leadership, environmental stewardship, and community service. LTP’s also embark on a 15 day canoe trip in the remote regions in Lake of the Woods that focuses on leadership and teamwork, technical skill development as well as offering a worthwhile personal challenge for participants.
LTP applicants must be completing 10th grade. BB Camp’s LTP program is designed to enhance interpersonal and communication skills while fostering independence and self-awareness. Service is also an important part of the LTP program; we believe that service to others, whether individually or in a community, is an essential character value at Camp and at home. LTP is designed to prepare teens for the challenge of becoming a future camp staff and work in a variety of leadership opportunities.
