Camp Quest, Inc.

Camp Quest supports a growing network of weeklong summer camp programs aimed at children and teens from nonreligious families. Our camps provide a mix of traditional summer camp fun plus science, philosophy, and critical thinking activities in an environment designed to foster a sense of community among the youth participants.

Our Mission

Camp Quest provides an educational adventure shaped by fun, friends and freethought, featuring science, natural wonder and humanist values.

Values we teach: integrity, empathy, creativity, critical thinking, and community.

Our Vision

Camp Quest envisions a world in which children grow up exploring, thinking for themselves, connecting with their communities, and acting to make the most of life for themselves and others.

Our Goals

Through our programs, we seek to:

• Develop supportive communities for freethinking families
• Foster curiosity, scientific inquiry, and critical thinking in young people to enable them to draw their own conclusions
• Cultivate reason and empathy as foundations of an ethical, productive and fulfilling life
• Provide a safe and fun environment for personal and social growth
• Encourage exploration of the natural world
• Promote open dialogue that is marked by challenging each other’s ideas while treating each other with respect
• Raise awareness of positive contributions made by atheists, agnostics, humanists, freethinkers, and other nontheistic people to our society
• Demonstrate atheism and humanism as positive, family-friendly worldviews
