Fitzroy Falls Conference Centre |
Robyn and Martin consider the most vital aspect of their work at the centre to be the children's Holiday Camps run in the winter school holidays and all through January. In 1979, the first camp for children in need was held. A charity with it's own committee financially supports both the Summer Camp and Winter Camp specifically for needy kids. Children are referred through DoCS, Barnardos, Burnside, Family Support, Lone Parents, Aunties and Uncles, Schools and Churches and they come at a very low cost or are sponsored through generous donations from friends, camp leaders themselves, and organisations. January 1980 saw the instigation of Breakaway Camps, run in conjunction with O.A.C. ministries. Junior and Senior Camps are now run solely by the Conference Centre and have become important events in the lives of many young people. Directors of these camps are all experienced camp workers who have a wonderful rapport with children. Leaders are drawn from churches of many denominations both in the local area and other parts of the state. January School Holidays: Underprivileged Children's Camp (Summer Camp): First full week of January. Children and Teens of all ages. Junior Breakaway Camp: Second full week in January.
