Camp Co-op is a new opportunity for those of us who run GLBTIQ community organisations to come together in fun and friendship to share, learn, support and mentor one another. Camp Co-op is being created to strengthen our community organisations by providing a series of networking events and access to shared online resources. The launch event for Melbourne Camp Co-op will be held on Wednesday 23 May 2012 at Karstens, 123 Queen Street, Melbourne between 6pm and 8pm, and will be professionally facilitated. The nearby Chaise Lounge in Queen Street have agreed to open from 8pm to 9:30pm for those who would like to “kick along” a little longer. There will be no cost to attend the Camp Co-op event at Karstens (refreshments will be provided), but Chaise Lounge is at each individual’s own expense.
