About this race

Now with lower race registration fees and a youth rate...   Welcome! Turkey Chase is the largest community event for YMCA Camp Letts and plays an essential role in raising money for our community. Attended by up to 1,000 runners and their families in the past, Turkey Chase is the perfect opportunity to give back to the community while helping children have a memorable and transformative summer camp experience.
Funds raised from Turkey Chase help Camp Letts in a few critical ways. As Camp Letts sees 3,000+ campers visit each summer and has over 20 individual buildings, funds help with the maintenance and upkeep of aging facilities.    Additionally, because of the dollars we raise, we are able to invite campers to attend on a scholarship who otherwise may have missed out on the experience.  Thank you for helping to share the feeling of belonging with so many more deserving members of our community!
