At Camp Letts Overnight Camp, kids become a community as they learn how to be more independent and collaborative while engaging in physical, social and educational activities. The building blocks are always the same, but we take pride in the fact that every week with us is different.
Kids try new activities, make friends with new people, and make memories that last a lifetime. Overnight Camp at YMCA Camp Letts opens up a whole new world of summer fun!

For Overnight Campers the available Add Ons for Summer 2024 are a Trail Ride OR Horse Masters. You cannot register for both equestrian add-ons. Please note this program is also weather dependent.
Enhance your camp experience with a guided trail ride! Your child will befriend one of the Clover Run horses for a picturesque waterfront ride through the woods. Trail rides are appropriate for all skill levels, no experience necessary. Hard soled, closed toed shoes required. Long pants highly suggested for comfort. Campers may register for 1 trail ride per week. Space is limited, so please register for a trail ride prior to arrival at camp.
Trail Rides will be held daily for overnight campers from 12:15PM-1:00PM (will start to walk towards Equestrian Center at 12:00PM). Please keep these times in mind in case you need an early pick-up! Please note if your camper is on a horse and you need early pick-up, you will have to wait until their add-on is done.
See description above in Day Camp add-on section
**If your child is a more advanced rider, please contact Clover Run Riding prior to signing up to discuss options at cloverrunriding@gmail.com
All participants must have closed toe riding shoes with at least a 1/2 inch heel and long pants.
Horse Masters will be held daily for both day and overnight campers from 9:00AM-11:00AM (will start to walk towards Equestrian Center at 8:45AM).

ASTM-SEI certified riding helmets are provided and required to be worn by all participants. If you send your child with their own helmet, it must have an ASTM-SEI certification label attached and be dated within 5 years. If the certification cannot be found or is out of date the helmet may not be used. Bicycle or other non-equestrian helmets are not permitted.
