CAMP JUPITER
Camp Jupiter is the program for rising 6th – 9th grade demigods, inspired by the mythology and history of Ancient Rome. Jupiter is a place where young heroes take their training to new heights with advanced foam sword games, a skills based LARPing system, advanced STEM based design and build projects, upgraded olympic challenges, and (of course) quest adventures to face off against the forces of darkness. No matter the danger, Jupiter is ready.
Every demigod who enters Camp Jupiter carries a destiny waiting to be claimed. On day one, campers are placed into their Roman Hometowns — ancient cities that set the stage for the week’s unfolding story.
Working alongside their counselors, campers co-create the narrative that drives their week – uncovering clues, solving myth-based puzzles, and earning their way to the Quest.
The story isn’t handed to them.
They earn it.
Every week at Camp Jupiter brings a new story, new challenges, and a new opportunity to level up. Campers engage in advanced foam sword combat, a skills-based LARPing system, STEM design-and-build projects inspired by Ancient Rome, upgraded Olympic challenges, and a week-closing Quest – living monsters, mythological puzzles, and epic confrontations included.
Every camper has a role to play. The outcome depends on all of them.

CAMP JUPITER
Train Like A Demigod
Demigod training at Camp Jupiter is a one-of-a-kind experience that combines physical, mental, and creative challenges.
Every week at Camp Jupiter is different.
Camp Half-Blood’s Mythology Studies, finds demigods immersed in the tales of gods, goddesses, and heroes through storytelling, activities and crafts. During lunchtime, our counselors enchant with captivating stories of legendary figures like Odysseus and Anansi, Mixcoatl and Hua Mulan, Beowulf and Boudica. Camp Half-Blood is where mythology studies come to life through the art of storytelling, creating new heroes every week!
A demigod can’t become a hero without going on their quest. Fate demands that we are tested and our campers always rise to the challenge. Mythical monsters from around the world are always seeking to destroy the camp or worse the gods themselves. It’s up to our young heroes to venture into the unknown and dark reaches of their park to stop the bad guys. Battle with monsters, solve ancient puzzles, and unravel the mysteries to keep the magic of camp alive. The treasures our campers bring home stay with them for the rest of their lives.
Swordplay and foam-weapon games are a staple of Camp Half-Blood. Our weapons are made with celestial bronze cores that make them safe for training and devastating to monsters. Our sword training focuses on the development of individual skills and techniques for duels with drills and form lessons. For our big battles, demigods at CHB learn the fundamentals of teamwork, tactical thinking, and communication to thrive on the battlefield. Every program hosts a sword tournament at the end of every week. Train hard, learn from your counselors and your fellow campers, and you might duel your way to the top and take home the champion’s golden sword as your prize.
Every hero has the tools and equipment that keep them safe along their journey. Heracles had his lion-skin and club, Artemis had her silver bow, and the Monkey King had his magic staff. Camp Half-Blood campers are no exception and learn how to turn ordinary materials like cardboard, duct tape, and foam into an arsenal of unique arms and armor from around the world. Want a roman shield, samurai armor, and a Viking axe as your kit? No problem. Our counselors help your camper channel their inner forge-god and guide them through building a creation that is their own.
Demigods don’t shy away from healthy competition and our Olympic games bring out the best examples of their teamwork, athletics, and quick thinking. Events for our games include Laestrygonian Dodgeball, capture the flag, mythological trivia, and stealth games such as Escape Medusa’s Garden. The team that performs the best across all our games is given honors and the day ends in a festival of celebration. Don’t forget to give offerings to your patron god or goddess!
