Every year, a few 13 year olds attend. If you send in your application, we will review it and contact you about the possibility of your son attending. His chances greatly improve if he has an older brother also attending.

I sent in my application. When will I hear back?
Once we receive your application, we will send you an email confirming receipt of your application. We will then review the application and let you know once you are confirmed. You should receive a confirmation packet in the mail within 3-4 weeks of us receiving your application.

What should I bring with me to Quest?
Please see the Quest packing list.
