Description
Camp Quest of Minnesota is now Camp Quest North - Please go to campquestnorth.org for up-to-date information!
Camp Quest of Minnesota is affiliated with National Camp Quest (Ohio), the first secular summer camp for youth in the history of the United States. Camp Quest was specifically designed for children of Unitarians, atheists, agnostics, freethinkers, humanists or whatever terms might be applied to those who maintain a naturalistic, not supernaturalistic, world view. Our purpose is to build a strong, healthy community among the youth participants. In addition to fun camp activities (examples: swimming, fishing, canoeing), counselors and guest volunteers lead the youth in learning activities that teach them about freethought and humanist principals.
