We are pleased to announce that he camp will again be held at Phillip Island Adventure Resort right in the heart of Phillip Island. the centre is owned and run by Christian Youth Camps and is a modern facility which has been built within the last 15 years. We last used this facility in 2012.
Annual camps provide the opportunity for us to come together from across Australia and overseas for a time of sharing, learning, worship, enjoyment and memories.
The centre is situated on 80 acres within 500 metres of Smith’s Beach. It has three separate totally self contained areas of which we will be occupying ‘Silverleaves’ which accommodates 126 people in 26 spacious rooms. Leisure facilities include swimming pool, two large 4 acre lakes, recreation rooms, tennis/basketball/volleyball courts, archery, table tennis, and under cover BBQ area, flying fox, giant swing and canoeing.
Local attractions on the Island within 10-15 minute of the site include, many beaches, the Nobbies, Nature Reserve, Penguin Parade, Koala Conservation, Wildlife Park, the township, ferry to French Island, and many other small tourist facilities.
We are hoping to arrange an outing on the free day on Thursday, as an option.
Within a 90 minute drive is Wilson’s Promontory, the stunning picturesque southern tip of the mainland of Australia and many other attractions within a 30-60 minute drive. This therefore gives more than ample options for everyone during afternoon leisure time.
