The new book Who's Who in Hell, A Handbook and International Directory for Freethinkers, Humanists, Naturalists, Rationalists, and Non-Theists, by Warren Allen Smith (Barricade Books Inc., ISBN 1-56980-158-4, 1260 pages, price $125) was published just a few weeks before Camp Quest 2000 began. A copy was brought to the camp by Fred Edwords for all staff members and counselors to read. One CQ staffer after another found his or her name listed in the book. Fourteen current Camp Quest counselors and staff members were listed, as well as five former staff members. From the experience of Fred and Steve Schafersman, it was quickly concluded that, while in session, Camp Quest must be the largest concentration of WWIH-listed individuals in one place on Earth (even more than Amherst, NY, except when there is a board meeting or a conference).

This outstanding concentration of humanists, rationalists, freethinkers, and nontheists among the counselors and staff members at Camp Quest guarantees that your secular humanist child will receive the finest education and individual support in humanism and freethought studies available anywhere on the planet. Camp Quest is proud that so many of its staff members have achieved sufficient recognition for their humanist and freethought activities to earn a personal listing in Who's Who in Hell.
