Online Summer Camps
Join us for our newest creative endeavor: Online Summer Roleplaying Game Camps! During this time of distancing, we want you to know that we are here for you and your family. While we wish that we could be with your children in person, we are finding that our online programs are a fun alternative that offers a social connection that we all need while maintaining the safety of social distancing.
Our skilled staff will keep participants engaged and having by creating an interactive story that includes diverse, age-appropriate challenges that draw upon each Quester’s unique strengths & skills! We have adapted our Quest programs to work online via the Zoom video chat platform. Our programs foster skills like teamwork, creative problem solving, and adaptability that are so important at this time. Best of all your children get a chance to interact with their peers in creative and imaginative ways!
We have a variety of both morning and afternoon options to suit the diversity of family scheduling needs.
You may sign up for more than one program per week! Each program will have a different storyline.
This fine program quickly captures the imagination of children and at the same time teaches important interaction and problem solving skills that empower the child and create an open pathway toward the challenges of real everyday life.
Online Summer Camps – Adventure Quest & More
Adventure Quest Online Summer Camps
Join our Quest Leaders online for an exciting Adventure Quest experience! Adventure Quest™ is our award-winning experiential education program where the children and teens become the heroes of an incredibly fun and dynamic quest, working together in a mythical and magical world to overcome interesting challenges, solve mystifying riddles, and brainstorm unique solutions to puzzling dilemmas. See more information on Adventure Quest.
Our online version of Adventure Quest is similar in many ways to the live-action program, but without the foam Swasher™ swords or outdoor setting. It allows for all the fun and engagement of being a hero in a team of questing companions, and helping to create an interactive roleplaying story, even finding ways to bring physical activity into the program with mimed battles, feats of strength and agility, and in-home treasure hunts.

Ages 6-17
A special Adventure Quest edition just for female/non-binary questers!

Mini-Quests & Intro Sessions
Join us in on a Friday afternoon mini-quest! This short and simple Adventure Quest program could be perfect for you if:
- you’ve never played Adventure Quest before or have only played at a birthday party or after-school mini-quest
- you’re new to the online format and curious to try it for a short session
- our longer sessions don’t fit your schedule and you’d prefer a single-day adventure
What to expect: You will play an exciting Adventure Quest game within the class period and if you are new there will be the opportunity to:
- Learn the game system
- Get used to the online format
- Create a character
- Be ready for upcoming Adventure Quest programs that you are thinking of registering for
These mini-adventures are also the perfect opportunity for new and old questers alike to try out different paths and new characters. These mini-quests will each be a self-contained adventure where every Quester will pick a core path from our game system and receive a sample of powers from that path to use throughout the afternoon.
Online Quest Requirements
Online Quests take place via Zoom, and require a computer, tablet, or smartphone with a microphone and video capabilities, and a quiet space. For siblings to quest at the same time, multiple devices are recommended. See Zoom’s system requirements for computers & for mobile devices

Unsure of summer plans?
We understand how hard it is to predict what’s coming and plan ahead in this unprecedented time. This season there will be no cancellation fees or session change fees. If we’re able to open in-person camps and you want to switch your registration, or if your schedule suddenly changes, just let us know. We’re all in this together.
Some questers have been going on quests for years and are ready for the next level of challenge. Power Quest is an Adventure Quest program for highly-experienced questers, with the opportunity to face challenges that would be too daunting and difficult for questers of less experience. In these adventures, the Questers encounter legendary villains, make complex ethical decisions, learn from the consequences of their actions, and have the opportunity to earn greater rewards. By their actions, they may change the course of history in Thael.
In the tradition of the ancient Norse Skalds, Quest & Quill encourages creative writing and the oratory arts within an Adventure Quest program. Participants can write about the stories unfolding in their quests, or about their heroic character, or any topic that inspires them.
