Camp FAQs

Camp Registration

List of 10 frequently asked questions.

  • How do I register for camp?

    Registration opens to the public on February 17, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. At that time, a link will be posted on our website where families can complete the online application and submit tuition payment.

    We encourage you to review our 2026 offerings by reviewing the 2026 catalog and At-a-Glance view so you're ready to go once registration opens. 
     
    Completed registration forms and fees for all JRA programs are due in full prior to the start of each program. Early registration is encouraged, as program sizes are limited.

  • How do I use the new Homeroom platform to register my child?

    We recommend clicking the buttons below to navigate the registration process smoothly. 


    If you are in need of tech support while navigating Homeroom, you can contact their support team at hello@homeroom.com. 
     

  • How can I tell what is my child registered for?

    When you registered you received an attached invoice that outlines the programs your family is registered for. You can log back in to the registration platform at anytime to update family information and view current registrations.

  • What is the deadline for registration?

    You can register for JRA Camps until 5 p.m. on the Thursday before a session starts (pending availability). Pending camp availability, registrations after the Thursday 5 p.m. deadline are subject to a $50 late registration fee. Please contact our camp office via telephone (772 492-2106) to inquire about late registration availability for a particular camp. Unfortunately, in the interest of keeping campers safe and due to camp logistics, we are not able to accept same-day on-site registrations.  

  • Many camps fill their enrollments very early in the Spring. How do I know if a camp is full already and how does the waiting list process work?

    If you are trying to register online and a camp is full, the system will notify you that you are being placed on a waiting list. If you are placed on a waiting list, no payment is required. If space becomes available in the camp your child is waiting on, the Jolly Roger Adventures Team will call you to see if you would still like to fill the opening or if you would prefer to pass the opening to the next person on the waiting list.

  • My camper will not be able to attend the full week of camp, is that OK?

    Because our camp curriculum builds upon itself over the course of a week, we do not recommend campers missing days of camp. That said, we understand that summer schedules can be very busy, so if your camper needs to miss a portion of a camp program, we can accommodate that. We cannot, however, prorate the cost of camp programs, and we are not able to offer makeup days for missed portions of camp.

  • I’m on a waitlist; what happens if a space becomes available for my camper?

    If a space becomes available for your camper, you will be contacted by our office and you will be given an opportunity to enroll in the program. 

  • What is your cancellation/refund policy?

    Cancellation requests that are submitted in writing by May 1 are eligible for a full tuition refund minus a $50 cancellation fee per camp enrollment. Tuition is nonrefundable after May 1. Camp fees cannot be refunded or prorated for missed days, including unexpected absences.

  • Can I transfer to a different JRA camp?

    Pending availability, you can transfer your camper's enrollment to another JRA camp by submitting your request via writing to jlinus@steds.org. Tuition differences from one camp to the next will be applied to your credit card on file, and a $10 fee is applicable for each transfer. Transfers are not available after 5 p.m. on the Thursday before your camp week.

  • Is financial aid available for Jolly Roger Adventure Summer Camps?

    At this time, financial aid is not available for Jolly Roger Adventure Summer Camps.

List of 8 frequently asked questions.

  • What are the differences between Flagship Camps, Enrichment Camps, Academic Camps, and Sports Camps?

    • Flagship Camps are week-long, camp programs. Each Flagship Camp session features an adventure-filled weekly theme, and campers engage in unique arts and athletic activities that are congruent with that week’s theme. During the registration process, campers are able to select their Water or Day Camp.  Campers are divided into groups by age, and activities are tailored to be developmentally appropriate for each group. Each Flagship Camp has a particular grade range for participants, from pre-kindergarten through ninth grade (in the upcoming school year).

    • Enrichment Camps are typically weeklong, half-day camp programs (9 a.m. – 12 p.m. or 12:30 p.m. – 3:30 p.m.) where campers can immerse themselves in a specific topic related to academics or fine arts. There are some full-day options and as always you are welcome to stack morning and afternoon sessions to create a full-day experience. Enrichment Camps are hosted by Saint Edward’s School faculty/staff and select educational professionals from the Vero Beach community. Each Enrichment Camp has a particular grade range for participants, from pre-kindergarten through ninth grade (in the upcoming school year).

    • Academic Camps are weeklong, half-day camp programs (9  a.m.– 12 p.m. or 12:30  p.m.– 3:30 p.m.) where campers have the opportunity to get prepared for the upcoming academic year!

    • Sports Camps are weeklong, half-day camp programs (9  a.m.– 12 p.m. or 12:30  p.m.– 3:30 p.m.)  where campers have the opportunity to explore interests or even work on skills and drills.

  • What should my camper bring to Jolly Roger Adventures Camps?

    Campers should bring a refillable water bottle and are strongly encouraged to wear sunscreen to camp. Campers are welcome to bring additional sunscreen for reapplication throughout the day. 

    Campers who are attending a full day of programming are provided with lunch.

    Please make sure you label everything with your camper’s name! More detailed packing lists can be found below.

  • What does JRA do to help manage food allergies?

    JRA has detailed safety procedures for managing camper allergies. Each staff member is trained in identifying allergic reactions and proper usage of EpiPens. Staff members are briefed on camper allergies before the start of each week of camp, with our camp nurse overseeing the distribution of each camper’s allergy-management plans to our staff.

    Snack and lunch breaks are closely monitored by our camp staff, including the camp nurse.  In the interest of preventing exposure to allergens, campers are not allowed to share food with each other at Jolly Roger Adventures.

  • What do I do if I need to pick up my camper early?

    To arrange for an early pick-up, please call 772.492.2106. A JRA staff member will escort your camper from their camp activity to the car line location in front of the Upper School Library at your preferred pick-up time.
