Each camp also has its own well-managed waterfront. Staffed with lifeguards trained by the American Red Cross, the waterfronts are the perfect location to get those swimming requirements done!
And you want nature and ecology? You got it - we have 1,350 acres of wilderness to explore, including forests, beaver meadows, wetlands and bogs.
You can come for a day or stay overnight in our comfortable, rustic cabins - each sleeping up to 10 people. Our cabins are grouped into villages of 8 to 10 that share a modern washouse - hot water, private stalls and showers, full electricity. |
Please consult the Junior Girl Scout Badge Book for descriptions of the activities listed above. We are able to accommodate Girl Scouts troops throughout the year for a wide variety of programs. If your troop cannot make this date, but are interested in a camping experience, please call us at 413-623-8991 for more information. |
Once you have reserved your space with the Becket-Chimney Corners YMCA and picked the activites you would like to engage in, our YMCA Program Directors will schedule your troop for class sessions with our staff. Your troop leader will receive a schedule for your visit about 2 weeks prior to the weekend. Some activities may take longer than others to complete, so the number of activities your troop will complete may vary. Please note that troops of similar ages will be combined for some activities. |
