SUMMARY:PWSA(NZ) Family Support Camp 2025
DESCRIPTION:Our next Family Camp is taking place Friday 21st – Sunday 23rd March at MiCamp Taupō. Although our previous 2 camps have been held at MiCamp\, we have a new\, exciting programme for 2025 which promises to be different! \nFamily Camps are open to people with PWS of all ages to attend with their family or a support worker. \nThe camp at Lake Taupō is a comfortable and popular venue which is conveniently located in the middle of the North Island\, allowing for most North Islanders to easily make their own way there by car. Subsidies are available for families flying from the South Island. \nREGISTRATION:\nRegistration and payment will need to be completed at the same time via our Trybooking page: www.trybooking.com/nz/UTH\nPlease have all your group details ready when registering. \nPlease register by: January 31st \nPlease note that we are no longer able to subsidise camp at the previous level so contribution amounts have slightly increased\, but our camp is still heavily subsidised by PWSA(NZ) – all your accommodation\, meals and activities are included. We also keep camp costs as low as possible by requesting that parents and support staff help with camp duties and camp clean-up afterwards. \nIf camp costs are prohibitive to your being able to attend due to financial circumstances\, please contact us to discuss. \nSUBSIDIES AND TRANSPORT:\nIf you are in the South Island\, subsidy payments are available for registered attendees up to the amounts listed below\, which are 80% of current flight costs. Please note that subisdies may not cover 80% if you delay booking. Please keep an eye out for deals and book early. Ferry subsidies are also available.\nThe options are return flights into Taupō or Rotorua Airports\, or using each airport one way. We may be able to arrange transport from airports by asking other attendees who are passing to collect passengers\, or one of our camp volunteers may be able to drive to Taupō Airport to collect passengers\, but we cannot promise this will be possible. If multiple passengers are arriving at similar times\, we are happy to put families in touch who wish to share transport. \nFrom Blenheim – up to $412 pp Taupō return / $389 Rotorua return\nFrom Nelson – up to $394 pp Taupō return / $338 Rotorua return\nFrom Christchurch – up to $335 pp\nFrom Queenstown – up to $427 pp Taupō return / $378 Rotorua return\nPlease contact us if flying from an alternative airport. \nPlease note PWSA(NZ) reserves the right to request a refund of flight subsidies paid if families choose to cancel their registration or not attend this event. Families may wish to consider travel insurance. Please send your flight bookings with your account details to: accounts@pws.org.nz \nDETAILS:\nSTART: Friday 21st March 5.30pm (check-in from 4pm) \nFINISH: Sunday 23rd March 1.30pm \nLOCATION: MiCamp Taupō\, Waitetoko \nREGISTRATION: $75 / adult\, $45 / child (5-17yrs)\, $25 / child (3-4yrs)\, under 3’s free \nWHO CAN ATTEND: open to people with PWS of all ages to attend with their family members or a support worker \nWHAT TO BRING: sleeping bag or linen\, pillow\, togs\, towels. \nPROGRAMME:\nProvisionally planned activities include a trip off-site for a bush walk and a dip in the hot pools\, a new night time astronomy activity\, kayaking at the lake\, plus other activities such as air rifles and disc golf.
