8th April- Come & Try Day Success!

On the 8th of April, People Outdoors Ballarat held a Come and Try Day at UC Camp Norval. We couldn't have asked for a better day or a better experience! A variety of campers, ranging in ages 8-50 attended. All had positive experiences in activities including high ropes, canoeing and archery. It was so good to see people give it a go and try something new! Finishing up with a hearty BBQ lunch with the best sausages ever by UC Camp Norval and their amazing staff. A special thanks to Hayden and Manny for their inclusive activity instruction on the day. The Come and Try Day was an excellent way to introduce participants to People Outdoors. We have more planned throughout the year so spread the word!
