EXCEPTIONAL LEADERS Our dedicated teams of Christian leaders care for campers 24 hours a day. They are trained in child protection procedures, reference-checked and screened in accordance with government legislation. Each camp has a ratio of at least 1 leader to every 5 campers, and most primary-age camps also have a camp ‘mum and dad’.

ENCOURAGING ENVIRONMENT Our nurturing camp environment is one where campers will feel accepted, cared for and encouraged. Through activities, campers develop teamwork, confidence and social skills. Our camps are alcohol, tobacco and drug-free.

GREAT VALUE We work hard to offer quality programs at the lowest possible price. Camp prices include all activities, meals, accommodation, and 24-hour supervision, plus transport for most activity camps.

ADVENTURES AT THE

LAKE

CRU Camps at Lake Mac are best-known for the legendary sailing camps! Our fleet of boats and experienced leaders will mean you’ll have a great time on the water, no matter what your sailing experience is. But sailing isn’t the only thing you’ll be enjoying on camp, you’ll have fun doing other activities like canoeing, tubing, rock climbing, abseiling, wakeboarding, paddle boarding, sports, water skiing, bonfire nights, messy games and more!

So join us at the lake for a summer to remember! There’s no better place to hang with fun leaders, make friends, and hear about the Creator of the wind and the waves.

ADOPT A CAMPER We want to give every child the opportunity to enjoy the CRU Camp experience.

This is why a CRU Camper Sponsorship Fund exists to offer partial sponsorship to children who may miss out on camp due to financial constraints.

Samantha^, 12-year-old sponsored camper, shares, “Camp was encouraging and fun. I loved the experiences! I got to meet other Christians on camp and the leaders helped me see a new perspective on Christianity.”
