Blamey Barracks - Kapooka, NSW

The 'Home of the Soldier' is a very busy place for the 'Everyman'. To keep morale up we provide simple support by doing brew runs to the range and to the field positions, we also run a recreation centre. We provide a listening ear, prayer support and encouragement. We are a Christian witness in a tough environment for recruits. Many of these young men & women deploy directly to war zones.

Everyman's has a fully functioning Recreation Centre which includes: Pool table, Internet Cafe, PlayStations, Soccer Table, Darts, Chess, Draughts, Carpet Bowls. Tea & Coffee making facilities. Daily newspapers and a variety of books & magazines. A selection of books provided by the local Christian Book Store are also available.

Currently we have two full time staff member, a reserve member and three volunteer associates working very busy hours to keep the morale up. Defence have requested EWS to look into providing another full time member who would help to expand the existing work of brew runs to the ranges and field positions and to the operation of the 'Recreation Centre‘.
