Summer Camps at BCH are inclusive Christian formation ministries of the Episcopal Diocese of Massachusetts in partnership with the dioceses New Hampshire and Western Massachusetts.
You and your family are welcome here! As an Episcopal camp, we are passionate about being a safe space for all campers and families and we strive for a rich diversity of campers and staff. Each week chaplains participate in all camp activities and lead space for chapel and reflection.

ACA accreditation means we undergo a thorough (over 250 standards) review of our operation – from staff qualifications and training to emergency management. ACA collaborates with experts from The American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Red Cross and other youth service agencies to ensure that our current practices reflect the most up-to-date research based standards in camp operation. Every camper’s safety and well-being is our chief concern.
