Campers Church
The Oliphant Campers Church was established in the summer of 1906. It has operated continuously since that time as an interdenominational ecumenically based seasonal meeting place for worship and fellowship during the months of July and August. The church has served, over the years, as a centre for spiritual fellowship, a form of “community centre” for the residents, both in the summer and at other times. It has also served each year as the planning centre for the Oliphant Campers’ Association for its annual Regatta activities and storage for Regatta trophies / memorabilia.
