Bullara Ladies Campout

 

Firepit at Bullara

The very first of the Annual Bullara Ladies Campout, organised by the Exmouth Branch of the Country Womens Association of Western Australia.

Welcome ladies, to a weekend of fun and friendship.

Our aim is to bring together station women, CWA members from any branch in the state, and their female friends. For an opportunity to make new friends, get away from the ordinary, and mostly to have a few too many laughs.

We’ve got yoga, pilates, cooking demos, scone making, wine appreciation, a talent show, bush walking, bike riding, book reading, sleeping in and zoning out…planned. You can do it all, or do nothing. This is a weekend where you do what you want. Activities are spread throughout the weekend, so you simply sign up, turn up and enjoy.

Those who have not been to Bullara Station Stay are in for a treat. I urge you to view their website www.bullara-station.com.au

Bullara Campout Weekend Awesome!

I cannot wait for next years Bullara Station Campout Weekend, and I have only just returned from this years! The numbers were low, but the personalities were huge. We had hoped for more attendees, but there was so much on this weekend that we only had a tight group of 8 members. It certainly didn’t matter as we had an enormous amount of fun and quite a bit of relaxation.

Bullara Station is well known to Exmouth locals, we have at some stage (most of us) camped there. So we know how Edwina and Tim Shallcross operate this well oiled machine of hospitality and outback experience. Lots of very clever and artistic rustic art surrounds the campgrounds, little touches sometimes hidden but greeted with glee once stumbled upon. Like the Lava-Trees! Toilet block to most, but a shower, from a bucket under the stars to the campers. A toilet under the night sky is a wondrous experience!

Our accommodation was definitely not roughing it. We lazed in the lux Lodge and Shearers quarters, with our own private lawned yard and campfire pit. Large pink fluffy lounges, long dining tables and plenty of fridge space. Which is just what eight champagne sipping women need! And we didn’t starve either. Pancakes and fruit, roast chickens, big BBQ dinners, bacon and eggs. Chocolate Brownies with chocolate and more chocolates….

Next year will be bigger and better. Now that we have done the recon, and we know the lay of the land, we can plan ahead. The Exmouth CWA Bullara Station Campout will now officially be an annual event. The last week in October every year will the dates. It is open to all station women, Exmouth CWA members, their friends and family. Welcome to the ladies of Coral Bay and Carnarvon. Spread the word and let’s make it a great weekend for regional women from this region. Its a girls only event, so make the boys stay behind and do the housework, and its also a kids free event. So organise sitters now!

We will be organising the event well in advance for 2018, so make sure you put it on your calendar now. And keep an eye on our Facebook page Exmouth CWA for more informatio
