Camp Quest Smoky Mountains is a secular, gender inclusive, residential camp for children and youth ages 8-17 held one week each summer. It’s staffed and run entirely by adult volunteers (ages 18 and up) who take a week off of work or school to guide, challenge, listen to, chase after, and play outside with a big group of energetic, freethinking kids (and adults!). Most Camp Quest volunteers love the experience so much that they keep coming back year after year.
CQSM is currently seeking volunteers for its 2021 session from July 17th-24th. Meals and housing are provided during camp. First year staff are usually “cabin counselors” and are assigned to a cohort of campers with whom they spend much of the week.
