Most camps close two weeks before the start date or as soon as all seats are filled.
Campers are welcome to register for multiple weeks if the grade ranges match and space is available.
Only adults listed on your registration form may pick up campers and staff will verify ID.
JMC will meet or exceed the state-licensed staff to camper ratios. Campers will be supervised and in the line of sight when indoors and outdoors. Roll call will be taken at the beginning of the camp and headcount will be performed at the start and end of daily transitions.
Below are the maximum staff to camper ratios for the various camp offerings and specific activities.
