Any non-believers here with kids looking for a great summer camp? (or a volunteer opportunity?)

Camp Quest is the first residential summer camp in the history of the United States aimed at the children of Atheists, Freethinkers, Humanists, Brights, or whatever other terms might be applied to those who hold to a naturalistic, not supernatural world view.

The purpose of Camp Quest is to provide children of freethinking parents a residential summer camp dedicated to improving the human condition through rational inquiry, critical and creative thinking, scientific method, self-respect, ethics, competency, democracy, free speech, and the separation of religion and government.

Through our programs we seek to:

Build a community for freethinking families
Foster curiosity, questioning, and critical thinking
Encourage reason and compassion as foundations of an ethical, productive and fulfilling life
Raise awareness of positive contributions made by atheists, agnostics, humanists, freethinkers, and other nontheistic people to our society
Promote an open dialogue about metaphysical questions that is marked by challenging each other’s ideas while at the same time treating each other with respect
Demonstrate atheism and humanism as positive, family-friendly worldviews

I volunteer my time to help this organization, and when my daughter is old enough, she will attend as well (if she wants to).

If you have kids and are looking for a great summer camp, this is the place. There are many locations across the US, Canada, the UK, Ireland and Norway.

If you want to get involved in a group that is promoting rational thought through science, logic and reason, here is your chance.

1. We're doing this for my (soon to be) grand daughter

We're also going to get my daughter and her involved in Camp Fire.

not very close (we're in San Diego), but it's the closest one.

4. Awesome!!! I just submitted my info to volunteer!

I can't do the week long camp this year, but I said I could help with other needs. What a great concept!
