Description
Camp Kum-Bah-Yah is a non-profit organization dedicated to serving all the children of our community. Each summer, many campers receive financial "camperships" allowing them the opportunity of summer camp. In its entire history, Camp Kum-Ba-Ya has never turned away a child due to financial need. The camp receives financial support throughout the year from individuals, congregations, businesses and community organizations. All donations are tax deductible.Camp Kum-Ba-Yah is proud to be fully accredited by the American Camp Association (ACA) and in all respects meet the high standards of this organization. The camp is evaluated every three years to affirm that these standards are maintained.Camp Kum-Ba-Yah accepts campers on a first come first serve basis. We encourage early enrollment. We consider applicants without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, non-camp medical condition or handicap. Applications are available in the “Forms” section.The Counselor-In-Training (CIT) Program is a 7 week program open to qualified applicants ages 14-15. CITs work with their Program Director learning leadership skills and exploring and expanding the individual gifts and talents each has to offer. CITs translate knowledge into practical experience working with the younger camper groups. Applications are available in the “Forms” section.Each summer, Camp Kum-Ba-Yah welcomes international counselors from around the world. In recent summers we have had international counselors from Trinidad, Germany, France, Egypt, and Kenya! International counselors are hosted by local families, and we are always seeking families willing to share their home with these special friends.
