The club’s players and staff will split their time between Horsham and Ballarat on February 20 and 21, in an effort to strengthen the club’s connection with Victoria’s west.
Players from the 2016 AFL premiers will visit schools, hold clinics and conduct training sessions in Horsham.
Bulldogs Ballarat engagement manager Brett Goodes said on the club’s website the side looked forward to once again spending time in the region.
“We are excited to see the camp extend to Horsham in 2017,” he said. “To ensure we continue to strengthen our relationship with the west of Victoria.”
The community camps program started in 2003 and sees all 18 AFL clubs visit fans across Australia.
Since its inception, it has helped clubs interact with more than one million students during almost 6000 school visits.
