In Rick Riordan’s Percy Jackson series, what is the name of the training camp for demigods?

The story behind the answer

In Rick Riordan’s Percy Jackson series, the training camp for demigods is Camp Half-Blood.

Camp Half-Blood is a safe haven and training ground for young demigods, especially those descended from Greek gods. It is located on Long Island and is protected from many monsters by magical boundaries. Percy Jackson is brought there after learning that his father is Poseidon.

Readers sometimes confuse Camp Half-Blood with Camp Jupiter, which belongs to the Roman demigod characters in Riordan’s later series The Heroes of Olympus. The camps reflect the Greek and Roman aspects of the mythology, even though they are connected within the broader fictional world.

The camp includes cabins associated with different gods, an archery range, an arena, and activities designed to prepare demigods for quests. Chiron serves as its activities director, while Mr. D, the camp’s director, is the god Dionysus.
