As we get hints of summer weather breaking in, it is time to cast your minds forward, reach for your diary, and block out all dads and kids to be at Narabeen on:
Its going to be warm. (Even if it rains, it will be warm!). There will be beach time. There will be big community fun.
Lock it in and prepare to register from Thursday 24 September!
I’m afraid the weather seems to have beaten us this time. Heavy rain is forecast from today till Sunday afternoon
Given the number of young children, we do not believe going ahead with the camp is the right decision. If it was light rain with semblances of sunshine then it would be a different matter but it doesn’t appear that will be the case.
Craig has spoken to Neil and Bruce this morning and we are working on an alternative plan which we will confirm later this afternoon. In the interests of giving everyone as much notice as possible thought you would appreciate as early a heads up as possible.
For registered campers, please let us know if you can make it to the revised plan in Manly on Saturday. (We need to ensure the catering is still right).
We are contacting the Narrabeen Campsite to see what refund, if any, is available and will let everyone know as soon as we can.
Our apologies for this cancellation. It’s the last thing I wanted to do after all the effort but trust you will understand the decision and hopefully still join us on Saturday evening.
Thanks, Craig Hurt & Team.
We can confirm that two Dads and Kids Camps will be held this year at Narrabeen's Sydney Lakeside venue. Dates are:
Please whack the dates in your diary, spread the news far and wide, invite your friends and neighbours and try and encourage people new to St Matts to come along and make some friends.
What a great weekend we have had at the St Matt's Dads & Kids' Camp!
The weather this November weekend was spectacular. The beach, water and sunshine was amazing. The fact that Neil Smith planned all the meals was unbelievably good.
Our kids had a wonderful time playing with each other and deepening those relationships that we hope will last for year.
Dont' forget to check out The Video too!
It's all hotting up and we have another cracking weekend in store!
There are over 100 of us gathering amongst canvas this weekend. All the latest info will be on the website and emailed out to campers.
Hopefully you've got the date etched into the relevant families diaries. No doubt the Kids (and Mum) are counting down the sleeps till the next St Matt's Dads and Kids' Camp.
Well, you can make it a reality and Register Now to confirm your place in November 2014!
The vibe was so good last time, we've decided on another afternoon of Golf.
Open to all, it is a low key, high fun day.
Registrations are now open. Rego online, pay on the day.
We are excited to remind everyone to save the date for the next St Matt's Dads & Kid's Camp!
It is all happening on:
Regos aren't open yet, so just make sure it is all your family's diaries!
Well, despite all the weather could throw at us, we still a fantastic time away on the May 2014 Camp! Great kids, great food, great times!
Thanks to all the Dads who pitched in to make the camp yet another success.
If you want to see the short video of the weekend then check out The Video page!
That's right, this Friday it all kicks off again on site!
We have 33 families coming along across the weekend (well so far, we might get some more late stragglers as the unsuspecting Dad is signed up "anonymously"…)
Key last minute info is being emailed out to the Dads and more info is on this website. Just remember to pack well, and warmly and get ready for another awesome weekend away!!
There are 24 families confirmed to come along to the camp next weekend at Narrabeen! We are expecting it be yet another great time away.
The teams are being finalised and information going out to the relevant people - so if you've registered watch out for the emails.
If you haven't registered yet and want to come, then places are still available. Just book online!
We've got over 16 families signed up and ready to go camping in a few week's time.
We know that there are many more Dad's who are caught in the "procrastination vortex", just waiting for the 4 minutes needed to sign up online and commit the mother of their children to a bit of R&R.
So, all in all, it is shaping up to be another cracking event!
PS. Register now if you haven't already!!
We are happy to announce that the registrations are now open for the May 2014 Dad's and Kids Camp.
You can again Register and Pay Online for the camp. We've even included your Coffee Order in the rego form, so you are one step closer to camping happiness by just registering! ;-)
Looking forward to seeing Dad & Kids return, along with some new folk to the May event also.
