Renaissance Jax Programs

Summer Camps

Renaissance Jax provides opportunities involving FIRST Robotics, STEM education, and mentor-driven experiences.

Previous Offerings

Each year, we host camps that provide the FIRST experience in a condensed time frame with varying additions, such as mask-making, dancing, and manufacturing. We partner with companies to provide special offerings with in-depth tours of facilities, workforce development, and even parent-child on-site fun. Camps have been offered for elementary, middle, and high school students.

Students received tours of key JEA facilities, built and programmed a FIRST Tech Challenge robot, learned about career opportunities at JEA, and more!
