As kids grow, J Camp grows with them! From pre-K to high school, we offer opportunities for kids to learn and flourish as they progress from their first camp experience to their first job.
Our caring and talented counselors—many of whom grew up at J Camp—foster a loving environment where kids dive into their passions and uncover new interests as they splash in the pool, engineer robots, hike mountains, take center stage, and more!
We are dedicated to fostering an inclusive community where everyone is welcome. We offer tuition assistance based on a family’s ability to pay because we believe that a more accessible program is a more successful program.
Accredited by the American Camp Association (ACA), Summer J Camp meets the highest nationally recognized standards for quality, health, and safety, while delivering a wide array of programs led by best-in-class vendors. Plus, for the second year in a row, J Camp was named one of “America’s Best Summer Camps” by Newsweek.
