The kinds of groups which use Camp
Drewe
are as follows:
School retreats, music, study
and drama groups, biology, geology
and marine study, teaching/coaching
camps, church family / youth
/ men’s / women’s
/ children’s camps groups,
scout and cadet camps, holiday
groups, family reunion camps,
community group camps and surfing
camps. Below are just a few
testimonials of some of the
groups who visit.
My name is Andrew Hay.
I am a minister with Restoration
Fellowships International. I
have been involved in coordinating
and running camps for over 20
years as a minister, PE teacher
and school principal. If you
are looking for a beautiful
setting for a relaxed self-catered
camp I would recommend you consider
the wonderful features Camp
Drewe has to offer.
We have used Camp Drewe for
our church’s annual men’s
retreat and teenager camps since
1999. We find the facilities
suit these camps perfectly.
The location is fabulous (right
on one of the most attractive
beaches in Australia) It is
a unique setting in that it
is very close to shops and amenities
yet totally secluded and private
in its location (you never have
strangers wandering through
the campgrounds). The grounds
are simply set out with a focus
on the local wildlife and natural
bushland setting while allowing
plenty of room for camp activities
and games.
The self-catered style is perfect
for us as it keeps costs down
and allows us to run our programs
with a degree of flexibility
and integration that is impossible
in a more formal catered situation.
Both the dining and meeting
halls are well laid out and
have an easy relaxed ambience–
There is good cold room space
and a very functional kitchen,
whilst it is well worth noting
that the meeting hall piano
is in tune and the sound system
works well. The sleeping accommodation
is screened, comfortable and
easy to maintain whilst the
ablutions block has been recently
refurbished.
Above all these things the staff
at the camp are so tremendously
helpful and accommodating. There
is a real culture of care and
hospitality evident every time
you visit.

Dear Len, just want to

of your facility again. the
men love coming to camp Drew
for its close proximity to the
beach and so many activities
around you to do. your hospitality
is always a highlight as well
as your challenge to us each
