Caravan and camping club


Caravan and camping club
Members have planted all the trees and shrubs on the grounds.

The McLeans Island Caravan and Camping Club was formed 23 years ago by a small group of caravan enthusiasts, and the area of the camp at McLeans Island covers 17ha.

The club, at 771 McLeans Island Road, is fortunate to have recently received a grant from the Fendalton/Waimairi Community Board as a contribution toward upgrading the facilities.

The clubs amenities include a clubhouse with kitchen and two toilet blocks, showers and laundry. All work on the ground is carried out by voluntary labour.

The club has a cross section of members, from young to old. The older members sometimes find it a bit hard to tow their vans around the country but find it an advantage to belong to our club which is an easy driving distance from the city so they can still enjoy the caravanning and the company of fellow campers.

Members have planted all the trees and shrubs on the grounds and some members have developed lawns and gardens around their vans.

Once a month the club holds a night of entertainment that is always well attended. This includes outside entertainment, mid-winter and Christmas dinners, and childrenfs parties.

  • The club is open for membership and enquiries can be made by phoning (03) 323 8484.
