Resident Melissa Musgrave is the secretary of non-profit Spirit of Camden, an organisation set up to promote the township. The group is currently planning for the 2027 Spinout Rock and Roll Festival in the wake of a successful inaugural event this year.

“We had lots of live music and bands, dancing and a classic car show, thanks to support from the community and local businesses,” she says. “We’ve got eight pubs and clubs plus a brewery in the town, and they were all activating under the rock and roll theme with 30 bands over a three-day weekend.”
