Awesome camp my son loves it this was our 2nd year but we will continue until he ages out

★★★★★Colin Mahoney

I live for camp WaMaVa. Every year I go back for the loving and caring staff and also the loving campers, your relationship with christ grows a lot during that week at camp. I have gone for 4 years now and every time I have the time of my life, if you are on the fence about sending your kid to camp, just know they are never alone at camp, the loving staff will make sure every camper has a great time, the food is amazing as well. I have been a camper and a J staff, and definitely plan on being a counselor there, WE LOVE CAMP WAMAVA!!! ps: (photo’s 1,2 taken with a polaroid camera in 2024)

★★★★★Paula - Rene' Amaker

This is absolutely an EXCELLENT overnight camp. My children have been going for generations. It's such a wonderful feeling to now see my grandchildren enjoying the same safe, loving, Christian value surroundings that their parents enjoyed. The camp also have policy and procedures in place to protect campers. They not only have them in place but they are enforced 100%. You will be put at ease about leaving your children for the first time once you meet the friendly loving staff and read the daily emails along with daily pictures of your little one having a blast and learning about Christ in a Christian environment.

The beautiful campus has been around for over 50 years. And what's amazing is that it has pretty much stayed the same. From the moment the car is in park, my son is off and amongst friends. I'm lucky if I even get a wave goodbye. If you are looking for a Christian camp for your child, Camp WaMaVa is the place to be. We are now on three generations that has enjoyed the camp.

I have been a camper, dishwasher, cook, counselor and/or teacher at this awesome place for most of the last 20 summers. I love this place! My own children are now old enough to be campers, and they love it just as much as I do. If you are new to the area and are looking for a Christian camp, look no further. Campers can stay for one or two weeks, and financial assistance is available for those in need. Activities include swimming, hiking, organized sports/recreation, arts/crafts, and much more. Each day there are Bible classes and devotional time as well. It's a great place full of great people; I have made so many wonderful memories there, and I hope you get the chance to do the same.
