At Camp Quest North we strive to teach and incorporate the below humanist principles into our camp activities. Counselor Theresa has come up with a simple way to bring these principles into your home as a great activity for you and your family to do together! Check out her simple presentation on what her family does and then join us on July 7th at 6:30pm central time to have a fun brainstorming session on how you and your family could turn these principles into actions!
