welcome to our website!
From its inception, Camp Kum-Ba-Yah was committed to providing a wholesome camping experience for the children of Lynchburg. Fifty percent of our children attend with full or partial “campership” assistance provided by the Camp.
For its operations, the Camp relies on both paid and volunteer staff and services.
