Save the evening of Friday 5th November 2010 and give camping a go with BIG4 Holiday Parks’ BIGgest night of FREE camping – ‘Come Camp 2010’

Join thousands of other happy campers around Australia as BIG4 Holiday Parks prepares for its biggest night of the year, opening up their Holiday Parks for one night only of FREE camping under the stars.

The unique national campaign, Come Camp with BIG4, will be held at a wide range of BIG4 Holiday Parks nationally in 2010. The event was a huge success last year, hosting approximately 10,000 outdoor enthusiasts.

The 5th of November is sure to impress experienced campers, families and even welcome newbie’s to the world of adventure and fun that the BIG4 Holiday experience provides.

This year, Come Camp with BIG4 will again support their charity partner, The Humour Foundation’s Clown DoctorsTM. Participating parks will be holding fundraising activities and all parks will donate a percentage of money raised from the sale of BIG4 memberships sold over the entire weekend to the charity.

The renowned BIG4 park facilities range from resort style pools to giant jumping pillows so the activities on offer are sure to delight guests of all ages. Activities will vary between parks from pancake breakfasts, to face painting and even mysterious treasure hunts - these are just a few of the exciting activities guests can enjoy.

James Shearer, acting CEO of BIG4 Holiday Parks, says Come Camp with BIG4 allows families and friends to enjoy a night together, and is a nice introduction for people that wouldn’t normally camp.

“Come Camp with BIG4 gives couples, friends and families the opportunity to enjoy a free night of camping. It’s the perfect excuse for a night away.

“Everyone is welcome - we want to encourage people to come along that would normally shy away from camping. Come Camp with BIG4 will no doubt be an event marked in all Australian’s diaries, as it was last year,” added Mr Shearer.
