Hall of Fame

Members of our Hall of Fame have gone above and beyond to support our camps and ensure the mission of our camps continues to serve future generations. The following is the criteria by which Hall of Fame members are selected:

A candidate for the Camp Lawrence, Camp Nokomis or Camp Otter Hall of Fame is a person, group or organization that has made a significant contribution to the Merrimack Valley YMCA camps. These contributions can include, but are not limited to, exemplary ongoing volunteer service, notable gifts of products, services or money, or public promotion of the camps.

Inductees are nominated by a member of the alumni community or camping staff and voted on by the current members of the Camping Branch’s Alumni Committee. Nominees receiving 60% of the votes from members of the Committee will be proposed to the Board of Managers for induction into the Hall of Fame.

Visit our Alumni Day page for information on this year’s nominations. If you have any questions, please contact  the camp office at 978-975-1330 or Anne Whalen awhalen@mvymca.org.
