WHAT TO EXPECT:
We'll all head up to the campsite on Friday afternoon, either in our own cars or carpooling (we can arrange rides for you). Once we arrive, we'll set up camp. The site is located on a farm and is equipped with cooking facilities, a food hall, a meeting hall, showers, toilets, and power.
Bring your tent, camper, caravan, or rooftop camper if you have one. If you don’t have any of these, no worries! Just let us know, and we’ll arrange accommodation for you.
There is power in the hall and communal areas, but not at the campsite. Be sure to bring chargers and torches. If you need power at night (for CPAP machines or other devices), let us know in advance, and we'll make sure you're taken care of.
Friday Evening: After everyone has settled in and gotten to know each other, we'll gather to go through health & safety, organize ourselves into teams, discuss the activities and schedule, and maybe participate in a fun, organized activity. Then, we’ll have a hearty meal. After dinner, we'll kick off with our first meeting and an inspirational speaker. Once the meeting wraps up, we’ll light up the bonfire, and if anyone’s up for it, we may also do some floundering. We'll end the evening by making sure everyone is prepped and ready for the morning's activities.
Saturday Morning: Saturday morning activities are optional and include sleep-ins, hunting, fishing, or kayaking. You’ll choose which activity you’d like to join when you register. We have plenty of spaces, but spots are limited each day, so we’ll do our best to get everyone into at least one of their preferred activities over the weekend. Hunters will start early to get to the hunting grounds before dawn. Fishermen will head out around the same time to fill their catch bags. Kayakers, hunters, and fishermen will return around midday, where we’ll process the catch and then enjoy beach sports, barista coffee, and good company.
Saturday Afternoon: After lunch, we’ll dive into optional afternoon activities such as shotgun shooting, small-bore shooting, digger driving, beach sports, kayaking, or simply relaxing.
We might also have some fun team competitions before dinner. Then, we'll enjoy another incredible meal together (a highlight of this camp, for sure!). After dinner, we’ll have another great meeting and speaker. The evening will wind down with more bonfire time, floundering, surf casting, kayaking, and prepping for Sunday’s activities.
Sunday: Sunday morning mirrors Saturday, with different people taking part in different activities. We’ll finish the morning with a final meeting and a wrap-up session before lunch. After lunch, we'll clean up the campsite and finish with a prize-giving ceremony, awarding sponsored prizes for teams, individuals, and a few other surprises we’ve planned.
Meetings: Our meetings are held in a large hall and feature live music, stories, updates on events and the competition, important notices, and talks from amazing speakers who will encourage, challenge, and build us up as men.
Activities: All activities are fully supervised by skilled leaders, and you'll receive clear instructions on everything you need to know. No prior experience is required—just bring your enthusiasm! While activities are optional, they’re all a lot of fun, and we highly encourage everyone to participate and support each other.
PS – did we mention the food is insanely good? It absolutely is!
WHAT TO BRING:
A detailed gear list will be sent out 1-2 weeks before the camp, giving you enough time to gather everything you need. But in the meantime, here's a general idea of what to bring:
Clothing: Pack enough clothes for the weekend, including warm gear for morning activities and evenings.
Sleeping Gear: Bring your own sleeping bag or duvet and an airbed/mattress (or whatever you prefer for sleeping).
Footwear: If you're planning to hunt, make sure to bring sturdy, comfortable footwear.
Essentials: Plates, cutlery, a tea towel, towel, and a drink bottle.
Extras: A torch, knives, fishing gear, and sports gear if you'd like to participate in those activities (though all necessary gear for activities will be provided).
Important: NO rifles unless specifically requested.
