Youth Summer Day Camp 2026
The 2026 Youth Summer Day Camp is the place for exciting adventures and a summer of memories!
Jupiter Parks and Recreation takes great pride in offering quality camp programs and activities. The goal of our camp programs is to provide a positive summer experience for children that is safe, fun and rewarding for all. Our mission is to recruit dedicated and enthusiastic counselors to ensure the best youth programs for the children of Jupiter. Safety and staffing continue to be the first priority for our camp program. Due to the ongoing challenges of recruitment and hiring of qualified staff, the overall capacity of the 2026 Day Camp will be dictated by the number of employees we are able to hire.
