CONSERVATION AND CULTURE
TAKE PICTURES,
LEAVE FOOTPRINTS
As the major club in the Campbelltown and Camden District of Sydney, our club members are dedicated to the land and environment issues in which we participate in the tread lightly movement with the help of the National Parks and Wildlife Authority. We also support Local Aboriginal Communities in maintaining the flora and fauna.
We are very conscious of the environment and believe in looking after the bush, as we want it to be there for our children and grandchildren to enjoy.
