Why do we fundraise? North Qld Combo Camp!

Damian was up early and meeting a few other companions at the plane station in Brisbane, ready to fly up to Townsville to help out on the North Qld Combo Camp... 


On the plane...


















And landed in Townsville!



First stop - Kingpin for some 10 pin bowling and arcade games!


Then onto the Sealink Ferry over to beautiful Magnetic Island.



On the island, lots of fun and games were had!













Snakes...


Damian was very brave...


Until the snake was tasting his forearm!






They all stayed at the Apex Camp...




Signpost down at the ferry terminal.


The grad kids (children whose last camp it is) got to have a special treat of breakfast at the pancake place!


Radical dude!



Damian wondered if his sister Laura had snuck up there to be the A-Singles champion for 2024?


Lawn bowls of course!





Friendly kookaburra...





Superheroes themed disco... Captain Underpants tra-la-la-laaaaaaaaaa!


The cheesboard club!  Qld Volunteers of the year 2023, 2025 and 2024!

Time to head home...





Mini golf before heading back to the plane station to head home!




Camp finished... time for a delicious espresso martini!  Totally counts as a coffee, right?


After the flight was delayed several times, they finally made it onboard to head home to Brisbane!




And Brisbane!


If you would like to come along on a camp with Damo, get in contact with the Camp Quality office in your state and sign up to be a volunteer!!  We welcome all volunteers, but are especially happy to see blokes come along, as there are never enough to go around!
