The funds raised by their efforts will go to Wires Australia and the Salvation Army for bushfire support.
The event was closed to the public and catered towards the 90 guests staying at the park, with Discovery Parks as a group pledging to match the funds raised by the event up to $100,000.
Discovery manager Tim Tyler said the fundraiser was all about being able to give back to the community and support those affected by the unprecedented and ongoing bushfires burning across Australia as a large organisation with caravan parks in various locations.
"This is what discoveries about, it's what the brand is all about," Mr Tyler said.
