FAMILY CAMP WEEKEND (aka Bring a Friend to Camp)

Friday, September 19th to Sunday, September 21, 2025

The Application Form can be found at the bottom of this page – not the “Register Now” button.

It’s been a long time, so we are so excited to reintroduce Family Camp Weekend! This is the perfect opportunity to introduce the Kilcoo magic to a new generation. We’re encouraging Kilcoo campers and alumni to bring their whole family for a special weekend at camp while also inviting cousins, classmates, and neighbours – boys whose families are curious about camp and would like to learn more – to come experience Kilcoo for themselves.

Book a cabin for up to 8 people. This could be your family alone, two families sharing together, or your family hosting your son’s friend.

The weekend itinerary includes:

Friday evening arrival – 4:00pm onwards – with a light dinner and the traditional BINGO Extravaganza in the Lodge with evening snack.

Saturday will run like a typical day at camp! Start your day with an optional Polar Bear Dip, then flag raising and breakfast. Following cabin clean-up, groups will rotate through a variety of classic camp activities both on land and on the water. After lunch and rest hour, there will be more fun programming including a camp-wide game! Enjoy a pre-dinner reception in the Lodge for the adults or a movie for the kids! The evening will end around the campfire.

Sunday will include open activity time in the morning, followed by Chapel led by the Kilcoo Staff, before saying our farewells after lunch.

Accommodation is in camper cabins, mostly in bunk beds, hosting a maximum of 8 people. Cabins have electricity plus a fan for warmer days and a space heater for cooler nights. Cabins are close by communal washrooms and showers. There are no cabins with ensuites.

The fee for the weekend is $250 per adult or $125 per child under 12 years (kids under 2 years are free) and includes:

• Friday light dinner and evening snack
• 3 delicious meals on Saturday plus adult pre-dinner reception & evening snack
• 2 delicious meals on Sunday
• Fresh fruit and coffee/tea available all day long in the Lodge
• Cabin accommodation for 2 nights
• Supervised access to waterfront and land activities
• Special programming such as bingo, campfires, games and Chapel

Please note, spaces are limited, and acceptance is based on order of receipt of the application. Parents are responsible for the supervision and safety of their children at all times. Further details will be emailed in early September.
