Talking Camp Quest with Katie
Episode 46
Wednesday, 5 February, 2025
We begin the episode talking about the LA fires and our inability to cover current events. And then we speak with Katie about Camp Quest, a summer camp founded on the conviction that all kids deserve fun, friends, and freethought. Not only does Katie give great advice about knowing when kids are ready for sleepaway camp, but the whole mission and vibe of Camp Quest is a lesson in treating children with respect and care. It’s a reminder of how much work and thought it takes to create amazing spaces for kids, but also the magic that can come out of that effort.
