Privatisation appears to be on the cards for Lake Macquarie's two Sport and Recreation camps.
There are reports the state government is interested in leasing out the Myuna Bay and Point Wolstoncroft centres and has been quietly sounding out private operators.
The two centres are among 8 of the 11 camps whcih the government is looking to be run be the private sector.
Sports Minister, Stuart Ayres admits the government is looking at ways to improve services, but denies the camps are going to be sold.
However staff have been told the option of leasing the centres is a real possibility.
Shadow Sports Minister, Lynda Voltz says it's just another example of the government selling off public assests.
"We are getting to a point where the Mike Baird government is selling everything that isn't nailed down. It's got to be a concern for future generations that the government no longer has control of the assets that have been built up for us," she said.
