Our kids have been attending JMC since 2022, and look forward to it every summer! Between the amazing staff, engaging STEAM activities, and sports, there’s excitement every day. Our oldest is especially excited about JMC’s expansion into overnight camps and the new outdoor recreation activities (and learning!) that come with them. Thank you for providing so many opportunities for kids to learn, have fun with friends, be mentored by staff, and stay active all summer long!
