WELCOME

Powder Hound is a non-profit Christian organisation that runs snowboard camps for Aussie teenagers each winter.

ABOUT US

webpic3In 2002, Geoff Wilson (a local Gold Coast vet with a passion for snowboarding) came up with the Powder Hound concept. Geoff wanted to give local grommets the opportunity to go snowboarding under the guidance of young Christian leaders.

The camp is now organised by Chris Delaney, a local Port Macquarie school teacher, and staffed by a passionate and energetic group of young leaders, keen to snowboard and share their faith.

Over the years we’ve taken hundreds of young people to the snow and this year we’re looking forward to another exciting camp. Before signing up for this years camp, remember our motto…….

Physically exhaust, Spiritually challenge

You will be taught how to snowboard (or snowboard better). You will be exhausted by the camp’s pace, and best of all, you’ll have the chance to hear about Jesus!
