“It was just amazing what we were able to do with the community and everybody coming together to raise almost $66,000,” said Camp Rainbow Director Jereme Miner.
This year’s Beaver Camp Rainbow Radiothon was sponsored by Wyatt Johnson. It was the 13th year for the event, and since 2009 more than $800,000 has been raised for the kids of Camp Rainbow.
“This shows you when the community comes together to help kids what great positive things can happen. We want to thank everybody, and it’s just amazing what people do to help others in this community,” said Beaver 100.3 Program Director Mike Sanders.
Camp Rainbow is a summer camp held each year at Brandon Springs Group Camp at Land Between the Lakes. After two years away for COVID-19 health concerns, between 40 and 45 children, ages 5 to 12 years old, and close to 100 volunteers will return to LBL this year June 13-18.
