Club Sleep Out 2026

In 2026, our Board of Directors, management and staff of Oak Flats Bowling & Recreation Club and Illawarra Yacht Club slept out in the cold on club grounds to raise money for the St Vincent De Paul Food Truck Wollongong which provides food, toiletries, blankets, hot beverages and companionship to those experiencing or at risk of homelessness and social isolation. We raised $15,000.

Each year, Illawarra Yacht Club & Oak Flats Bowling & Recreation Club fund local community groups by providing financial and in-kind support for beneficial projects, services and programs.

Beanies and Blankets Drive

Through the incredible generosity of our members and the wider local community, we were proud to donate an entire van full of beanies and blankets to the St Vincent de Paul Food Trucks.
These much-needed items will help provide warmth and comfort to people experiencing hardship within our community.
We’re incredibly proud of what can be achieved when our club and community come together to support those who need it most.
