If you need a hand with transportation, the team will be looking at alternative options and will be posting updates soon. Make sure to subscribe to our email updates and follow us on our social media!
How are camp leaders involved in Easter Madness?
Leaders help to facilitate conversations between their small groups at bible studies and accompany attendees during the day helping them freely explore what it means to be a follower of Christ through fun, engaging activities!
It’s a great opportunity for youth leaders to network, make connections and talk through matters they may be currently experiencing in their congregations.
All adult leaders attending Easter Madness 2024 will need to have a valid Blue Card.
There will be a training session for leaders a few weeks prior to the camp to familiarise everyone with the program and share any important information.
What is the Easter Madness Appeal sponsorship?
We have been collecting donations through the Easter Madness Donations Appeal to support young people from all over Queensland who are struggling financially.
We are passionate about Easter Madness and would love young people from all over the state to attend, so if you require financial assistance, contact us to see how we can help.
Campers wanting to access Easter Madness Donations Sponsorship will need to send an email to
eastermadness00@gmail.com with your registration already submitted.
Do I need to bring extra money?
All food and activities are included as part of the registration so there’s no need for extra money.
If you are a young adult and are registered as a leader there may be an opportunity to head off-site during the weekend in which you may want to bring some extra funds.
Are tickets refundable?
While we are excited to create an experience that all campers and camp leaders will enjoy, we understand that circumstances may change in the lead up to EM24. In this occurrence, cancellations made 28 days prior to the camp will receive a full refund less an administration fee of $15. For cancellations made 14 days prior will incur a cancellation fee of 50% of the registration ticket. If a cancellation is made within 14 days before the event there will be a cancellation fee of 100% of the registration ticket.
We can also credit for future camps or funds can be transferred to another participant.
Within 14 days of a camp start date, we do not offer a refund or credit for another camp. This is due to the minimum numbers of activities that need to be confirmed and costs that require covering at this point. However, you can transfer the registration to another participant for the same camp though.

What if I change my mind or my child no longer wishes to attend?
If your child/ren decide that they no longer wish to attend, you can transfer their registration to someone else for the same camp or receive the refund as per the cancellation policy below.
Cancellations made 28 days prior to the camp will receive a full refund less an administration fee of $15. For cancellations made 14 days prior will incur a cancellation fee of 50% of the registration ticket.

What if my child is sick and not able to attend?
If you are unwell, we ask that you remain at home to prevent others from getting sick also (just like you would at school). If your child is sick before the event then we will offer our 14 day prior partial refund – a cancellation fee of 50% of the registration ticket.
However, if your child has become sick during camp and can no longer attend, it is simply not feasible for us to provide credits or refunds for days missed once a camp has commenced. Our costs are fixed at this point and we are unable to re-sell your ticket.

What if a camp is cancelled?
While cancellations on our part are rare, they can happen, we do everything that we can to avoid it. Although with government enforced lockdowns, sometimes these things are out of our control.
We will make every effort to reschedule or to move your kids to another camp. In the event that we cannot reschedule, or find an alternate camp you will receive a full camp refund less an administration fee of $15.
