PUTNAM — Last week Eversource generously provided a Day of Service for the Hale YMCA’s Camp Cutler.
 After a very successful inaugural year of Camp Cutler, Eversource worked hard to improve the outdoor camp space.
This allows  the Y to create a more robust program for the children of the northeastern corner of Connecticut.
 Eversource cleared some trees and built some fantastic structures to help offer new and exciting programming. 
Gaga, a variation of dodgeball and a camp favorite, is a sport played in a octagonally shaped pit where the goal is to hit the ball at the other person’s knees or below. 
The ball is hit underhand and is never picked up off the ground. 
Gaga has been a staple at many YMCA camps for years. 
Along with the Gaga pit, Eversource began construction on some low ropes course elements, which the camp plans to offer to older campers next summer. Low ropes course elements help with leadership development and conflict resolution skills in camps and conference centers abroad.
