For more than two decades Camp Ta-Kum-Ta has provided a safe, loving place where children from Vermont and New York who have, or have had cancer can play, swim, share, and heal. In short, Camp T-K-T is where kids go to reclaim a childhood robbed by cancer.
For 24 years Ta-Kum-Ta has existed as a one-week program, leasing the old Camp Holy Cross on Malletts Bay in Colchester, Vermont. But in 2008, facing their own economic crisis, the owners of Holy Cross decided they could no longer support childrens programming and the search for Ta-Kum-Ta's future began.
