2025 CAMP Awards
Event description
🌈🐾 The CAMP Awards 2025
Celebrating the Heart, Humour & Highlights of Our Queer Outdoor Community
Get ready to roll out the picnic rug and pop the confetti — the CAMP Awards are here! These inaugural honours celebrate the campers who’ve made 2025 unforgettable: the ones who brought the belly laughs, lent a helping hand, and helped shape our community with warmth, wit, and wild spirit.
Whether you’re a seasoned bear, a curious pup, or somewhere in between, the CAMP Awards are your chance to shine a light on the legends among us.
🏆 What Are the CAMP Awards?
The CAMP Awards are a playful and heartfelt celebration of the people who make Queer outdoor events more than just groups — they make chosen families. From first-time adventurers, to community champions, each award reflects the joy, connection, and courage that define our year together.
Expect categories that are cheeky, charming, and deeply affirming — with nods to humour, kindness, leadership, and the occasional overpacked backpack.
📝 How Do Nominations & Voting Work?
This year, we’re keeping things simple and inclusive with a combined nomination and voting form to be issued Sunday 31st August 6pm, with voting to end Sunday 30th of November 2025 6pm QLD Time. Here’s how it works:
🐾 Silent Nominations: All submissions are anonymous. Nominees & Judges won’t know who nominated whom — it’s all about quiet appreciation and community love.
🗳️ Most Nominations Win: For many categories, the camper with the highest number of nominations will take home the award.
🧑⚖️ Judged Awards: The final honours — Paws Up Camper of the Year and Camping Bear of the Year — will be selected by a judging panel, based on spirit, impact, and contribution.
You can nominate in as many categories as you like, or just the ones that speak to you. Every vote helps us celebrate the magic of our community.
🎉 Why It Matters?
The CAMP Awards aren’t just about recognition — they’re about reflection. They honour the courage it takes to show up, the joy of shared laughter, and the quiet moments of connection that make our events feel like home.
So whether you’re nominating a friend, a fellow camper, or someone who made your weekend a little brighter, you’re helping us build a culture of gratitude, celebration, and pride.
📅 Save the Date
The CAMP Awards winners will be revealed at our final camping event of the year located at Come To Daddy, (hosts and sponsors to be announced) — complete with cheers, hugs, and maybe a few happy tears. Don’t miss your chance to be part of the celebration!
We acknowledge the Turrbal & Yuggera Nations who are the traditional owners of the land in which we are holding this event.
