Camden Council is proud to present the Camden edition Monopoly, which is now in production.
The artwork has been finalised and 2000 copies of the game are currently being produced.
One of the most exciting elements of the Camden edition was selecting the locations.

The 22 locations selected are:
• Camden Airport
• Leppington Train Station
• The Old St Thomas Chapel
• St John’s Anglican Church
• St Paul’s Catholic Church
• Narellan Sports Hub
• Teen Ranch
• Birriwa Reserve Outdoor Youth Space

• Macarthur Park
• Camden Town Farm
• Oran Park Library
• Cobbitty Village
Camden Mayor Theresa Fedeli thanked the 12 sponsors for their involvement.
“It was so important we had supportive organisations on board because the money we receive from the sale of this game will be donated to Lifeline Macarthur and the Camden Wollondilly Domestic Violence Committee,” she said.
“We want to raise as much money as we can for these two very deserving organisations.
“We’d like to thank all sponsors, particularly our gold sponsors, Narellan Town Centre; The Hermitage - Gledswood Hills, Meals on Wheels and Plus Fitness.
Each organisation has just approved their token for the game and they all look great.”
Narellan Town Centre general manager Brad Page said there was no way they’d let the sponsorship opportunity pass.
“This initiative is a great community project and Narellan Town Centre is as local as it gets,” Mr Page said.
“It’s a classic, timeless game that connects family and friends. The opportunity to have a local edition of an all-time family favourite is something we believe residents will be proud of to pull out of their cupboards.”
The game’s silver and bronze sponsors include:
• Harcourts Paramount Real Estate
• Camden Hire
• The Mac Credit Union
• Clintons Toyota
• Harrington Estates
• Grimes Finance and Mortgages
• Narellan Carpet Court
The game will first be available for purchase at the Jacaranda Festival in November.
It will then be available for purchase from the Camden Council administration building, Oran Park, Camden and Narellan Libraries, Camden Visitor Information Centre and participating local businesses.
