J Day Camps proudly runs ACA-accredited day camp at two locations: Camp Essman at the J – St. Louis’s Marilyn Fox Building in Chesterfield (available to grades K-6) and Camp Baer at J – St. Louis’s Staenberg Family Complex in Creve Coeur (available to grades K-7). At both camp locations, campers enjoy full days of movement, creativity, and hands‑on exploration. They jump into outdoor activities like soccer, flag football, sack races, capture the flag, Ultimate Frisbee, and obstacle courses! Campers cool off with most days by swimming in our outdoor pools, featuring big‑splash water slides, an aquatic climbing wall, and our signature tree swing. They can enjoy free swim and can boost their skills through fun, confidence‑building lessons led by certified instructors. And with indoor and outdoor pools at both locations, there’s no time lost on bus rides. Indoors, campers explore arts and crafts, skits and dance, science projects, and cooking. Depending on age and location, they may also climb the rock wall, use racquetball courts, play in full‑size gyms, or join weekly Shabbat celebrations. With choices spanning sports, arts, science, cooking, and more, campers build friendships, discover new skills, and enjoy a classic J Day Camps summer.
