“This is for any artists weather MC, DJ, Singer, Spoken Word, or producer. No Matter how big we think we are we need to return to our true nature and involve yourself in the 351 experience I guarantee you will come out with more than you came in withâ€Ryan Buckland - Participant
The experience we all had isn’t just anything you could find in other parts of the country or even the world, 351 there isn’t anything else like it. It helped me know exactly what I wanted to do with my life and made me want to help people especially the youth. I am going to great things with my life I can feel it and 351 gave me that. 351 isn’t just a camp it’s a part of me, who I am…and it can part of you!Tamica-anne Reynolds - Participant
Last weekend was one of the most outstanding and inspirational 3 days of my life. I went into the weekend with no expectations and an open mind. I came out with self belief, confidence in my ability and most importantly a new attitude -The attitude that anything is possible and that I CAN do what I love and live my dream...music.From the very beginning of the camp I found myself surrounded by positive, energetic and like-minded individuals. The leaders and facilitators were honest and gave of themselves openly. No judgement, no restrictions, just nurturing, creativity, and encouragement.I believe that 351 has been a turning point in my life and my 2006 will be a positive and powerful step towards my career in music thanks to my amazing experience. I am truly empowered. Thank you all.More information and photos available at www.351.org.au. Email further requests to
