2026 Spring Work Days

Spring is right around the corner, and it is time to head out to camp and start getting ready for another awesome summer! Come and see the camps during the most vibrant and beautiful time of the year and help us get for another best season ever!

We will have a great time together and get some work done while we are at it. Join us for the fun.

If you have any questions, please reach out to David Hunter, BYM’s Camping Property Manager: davidhunter@bym-rsf.org

Work Day Schedule:

We will get started around 9:30 am and work together until around 4 pm.
We will share a potluck lunch. Beverages and sandwich making materials will be provided by camp. Feel free to bring something else to share.

Please dress for the weather and wear heavy soled shoes, jeans and protective eye wear.

Friends under the age of 18 need to be accompanied by a Friend who is older than 18.
