Run for Fun Overnight Camps combines love for sports, nature and creativity. Our camp fosters great friendships built on play, imagination and collaboration. Our Overnight Camps offer children a safe place to try new activities and to challenge themselves! For an overview, this Summer Run for Fun Camps is offering 3 weeks of Overnight Camp! Two weeks will take place at our Overnight Camp Pinecrest location. A third week, Overnight Camp Lake Tahoe, has been added in the beginning of Summer.

BOTH camps are a short 10-minute trail walk to the lake where campers will get the opportunity to go kayaking, paddle-boating and swimming. BOTH camps will feature archery, kayaking, and all of our classic camp activities. Horseback riding will be offered both sessions of Pinecrest and we hope to make Horseback riding an “add on” for Lake Tahoe in the late Spring. Among our high-energy staff we have counselors who are certified in CPR, First Aid, and Lifeguarding. Campers will experience the fresh air, and excitement of an outdoor adventure, while creating long-lasting friendships and memories.


Counselors are supportive, compassionate and invested in making Run for Fun Overnight Camps a meaningful experience for all! Staffers understand the importance of connecting the campers socially with their peers, and encourage them to be the best version of themselves.

In addition to our hand-picked staff, Dave, Danielle and Alex have a wealth of camp experience, and are able to bring those experiences to camp every day. Kids are drawn to what we offer because we believe, and are enthused about, the importance of bringing sports, nature and play into kids’ lives.

“After going to Overnight Camp last summer, my child demanded both sessions. Excellent coaches, a caring environment, and affordable pricing have made Run for Fun, Adventure Camp and Overnight Camp a regular part of our child’s life for the past four years.”
