We have a pretty epic line up of activities including connecting to the local environment, meeting local legends, and inspiring young speakers doing great stuff for the environment. Hiking, Indigenous cultural activities, Landcare activities, leadership and personal development training, and more!

This event is perfect for young adventurous souls who love the environment and are keen to do stuff that matters. Application to attend is essential, as there are limited spots.

To make these opportunities accessible to as many young Australians as possible, successful applicants are being generously sponsored by the Port Phillip & Westernport CMA using funds from the Australian Government’s National Landcare Program. This sponsorship covers all catering, accommodation and a carefully packaged leadership & personal development program tailored to meet the needs of young people passionate about the environment. So we do ask that you take this commitment seriously before applying.

You must be able to attend the entire weekend (8:30am Saturday 9th June – 12pm Monday 11th June). We can help facilitate transport if you do not have private transport, and will do our best to assist with any other needs you might have, just let us know what they are.

Please note that successful applicants will be asked to make a contribution of $50 per person to go towards an exciting future fund investing in projects & initiatives you are passionate about. A pay-it-forward kind of concept, guided by you! But should you have limitations in covering this cost, please let us know as we do not want this stopping you from applying or attending.

For more information, please email hello@intrepidlandcare.org or call Naomi on 0423 84 64 94 or Megan on 0412 532 817.
