Summer Music Camp Schedule Overview
Jay’s Music Academy offers two summer camp sessions in 2026, one in June and one in July. Each session runs for three consecutive weeks. Families may choose one, two, or all three weeks within either session — or mix weeks across June and July, depending on availability and what works best for their schedule.
Students are placed into age‑appropriate camp themes after registration, ensuring every child has the right experience regardless of which week they attend. While the camp theme may repeat, the experience is not simply duplicated. Activities, songs, projects, and group dynamics are refreshed so returning campers continue to learn, stay engaged, and grow musically. In some cases, returning students may participate in activities with slightly more independence, creativity, or leadership opportunities appropriate to their age and experience.
Our goal is to provide a flexible, enriching, and enjoyable camp experience, whether a child attends a theme once or revisits it in a different session.
📅 June Session
(3 Weeks)
- Week 1: June 8–12, 2026
- Week 2: June 15–19, 2026
- Week 3: June 22–26, 2026
📅 July Session
(3 Weeks)
- Week 1: July 13–17, 2026
- Week 2: July 20–24, 2026
- Week 3: July 27–31, 2026
Families may choose to enroll in one week, multiple weeks, or a full three‑week session in either June, July, or both.
✅ What This Means for Families
- Choose camp weeks based on your family’s schedule
- No month‑based age restrictions
- Younger and older camps may run at the same time
- Students are placed into the appropriate camp theme after registration
- Flexible enrollment options with age‑appropriate placement guaranteed
This structure allows families to register with confidence, knowing their child will be placed in a camp that is engaging, supportive, and developmentally appropriate—no matter which week they attend
🎵 How Weekly Camp Themes Work🎵
Each three‑week session (June and July) follows the same rotating camp theme structure.
Importantly, camp themes run simultaneously by age group, allowing families to choose weeks based on availability—not age‑based timing restrictions. This means younger and older students may attend camp during the same week, each participating in a theme designed specifically for their age and developmental level.
🧩 Example Weekly Theme Structure 🧩
Week 1
Ages 4–8: Circus Camp
Ages 8+: Music for Video Games
Week 2
Ages 4–8: Colorful Keys
