The Great Aussie Campout

DateSat 15 Oct 2011
RegionAustralia Wide
FormatCamp Out Event
HostsQueensland Outdoor Recreation Federation, Australian Camps Association


The Great Aussie Camp Out (GACO) brings together thousands of Australians for one big night camping out under the stars … in their back yards, on a river bank, in a camp, a National park, a caravan park - in fact, anywhere they might feel like!

With the long term goal of promoting healthy active lifestyles by encouraging individuals, families, friends and clubs to enjoy the great outdoors, GACO coordinates a one night 'camp-out' across the country with the aim of introducing people to the fun and adventure of camping out.

People will be encouraged to stay at a residential camp or caravan park, pitch a tent, sleep under the stars, grab a Barbie, organise some games and get away from their normal weekend routine.

There will be plenty more information coming soon about the Great Aussie Campout 2011 so stay tuned to the official GACO website at: The Great Aussie Campout
or visit GACO at QORF for more information on what is happening in Queensland.
