Becket, Washington Two-Town Forum
BECKET, Mass. — On Monday, May 4, 2026, at the Becket/Washington Elementary School, 12 Maple Street in Becket there will be a community forum.
From 6pm to 8pm - all residents of both "sister towns" have been invited to attend a Two-Town Forum. The overarching purpose of this event is to bring together residents of both towns, along with local and state leadership, as well as town volunteers who currently provide services to both Becket and Washington residents.
This event has been organized by the Becket/Washington Friends & Neighbors (BWFAN) group founded in early 2025, to create a space for two communities to continue to build partnerships & coalitions within the two town structures.
The Sister Towns of Becket & Washington currently share a public elementary school, library, food pantry, art center and post office with zip code - 01223.
State Senator Paul Mark and State House Representative Leigh Davis will be participants during this forum to offer their advice and counsel about the power of partnerships among sister towns. The hope is that this forum will build stronger relationships between Becket & Washington leadership and residents. You are invited to join us as we build relationships to help make both Communities Stronger Together.
Local fooderies will be providing food, childcare will be provided by National Honor Society town students, a skit will begin the evening presented by the Arts Center Players, and local musicians have agreed to share their talents during the program.
Residents are encouraged to pre- register at either town website - www.townofbecket.org or www.washington-ma.gov under two town forum.
