Deeds of Love & Service

Happening each Fall, Becket-Chimney Corners YMCA alumni, families and friends gather in the spirit of camp in cities across the US (and sometimes beyond!) to do service projects in their local communities. These are wonderful events to connect with new and old friends and give back. We welcome new families interested in learning more about camp to join!

This an opportunity for everyone who has benefited from our camp experiences to give back by making a gift to our 2024 Annual Fund and make sure camp is accessible for all.
