As you can see, a summer at Quest is not a traditional summer camp. Quest is an academically rigorous program, and it demands a lot from both students and staff. That said, we still find plenty of time to have fun together. Trips to the ocean, Golden Gate Park, arts events, and local attractions allow lots of time for friendship and bonding. Friendships formed at Quest often last a lifetime.
