The camp is open to all junior members of Orienteering Qld aged between 12 and 20, doing moderate or hard navigation. It is designed to provide instruction and coaching for intermediate to advanced levels. Please note that this camp is not suitable for beginners.

This year's camp will be based at Columboola Outdoor Education Centre, near Miles. The camp will start with sprint training at Dalby SHS at 9.45am Thursday 9 July. There is a bus which leaves Brisbane at 7am, passes through Toowoomba at 9:30, and arrives in Dalby at 10.45am. We can collect juniors from this bus if required, they will not miss the first session. From Dalby, participants will travel in Helpers' and Coaches' cars. Camp Champs will be held on Sunday 12 July at Gurulmundi State Forest.

COST: $150 - will include all meals from dinner Thursday evening to lunch Sunday, 3 nights' accommodation in permanent tents (under shelter) at Columboola OEC, transport from the first training at Dalby SHS to the Camp Champs, all coaching and maps.
---NOTE: Tents are erected on covered timber platforms and contain foam mattresses (see photo below)
