January 2012. Melbourne Vixens, our national level netball team, concluded their 2012 pre-season camp with facilitation at KRWC. 12 tough girls with 12 authentic smiles - lookout the rest of ANZ - they are switched on
With the support of the Australian Camps Association Colin French from KRWC presented at the ICC in Hong Kong in November. The focus of the presentation was the recovery journey since the Black Saturday bushfires.

At the Reach Foundations annual Shooting Star awards event at The Dream Factory in Collingwood, Colin & Michelle French (KRWC operators) were awarded the peak award for 2011 the Shooting Star. Woohoo!Facilities
