Clevedon’s Camp Sladdin has been brought back from the brink of ruin, thanks to hard working volunteers from the Clevedon Scout Group, the Camp Sladdin management committee and a donation from the Clevedon Game Fish- ing Club. Camp Sladdin is a Scouts NZ-owned facility located at the Sladdin Reserve at the end of Thorps Quarry Road, Clevedon. The building is comprised of two large halls and basic bunk accommodation for up to 30 people. It is used by the Clevedon Scout Group on Wednesday nights, and until recently was also available for hire by the public. The past few years have seen Camp Sladdin fall into disrepair due to insuffi- cient money and volunteers. The camp was still used throughout the daytime, but had to be closed to overnight stays until it could be brought back up to an appropriate standard. The camp is administered on behalf of the NZ Scouts Association by a Camp Sladdin management committee, headed by Clevedon residents Ken Parfoot, Neil Bretherton and Bob Appleby. Concerned by the deteriorating state of the building, the trio formed the ‘Save Camp Sladdin From left: Ken Parfoot, Jason De Graaf, Joanne Allan, Ryan Castle, and Glenn Cunningham. Project’.
