Nestled on 1400 scenic acres, Becket-Chimney Corners YMCA offers overnight and day camp experiences in the beautiful Berkshire hills of Western Massachusetts.
We offer three separate summer camps with one purpose – to help youth discover their potential through life-changing experiences and relationships.
The best decision we made for our boys growing up was to send them to Camp Becket! Camp Becket is an amazing place for a child to develop, find themselves and find their way with others in a positive, fun enriching, values-affirming environment. Bravo!

Camp has year over year provided our daughter with space to become more confident in the person she is becoming. Camp provides her with a safe space to exercise being that person. She moves into a new school year being the best version of herself after 4 weeks of fun, friends, and meaningful interactions.
Emily has joined the year-round team after five years of being a seasonal summer staff member. A local resident, Emily enjoys the changes of pace that the seasons bring to the Berkshires. In the colder months, she enjoys crocheting, cooking, and baking. In the warmer months, she enjoys hiking and exploring with her husband and three kids (when they aren’t at Chimney!) You can also find her reading or painting whenever she finds the time. In the workplace, she prides herself on her organization and drive for efficiency. Her favorite part about camp is making connections with so many friends from all over the world. Emily looks forward to getting to know more camp families and colleagues in her new role!
