Good News and Great News.
So good news first – the glitch that we thought was fixed, and discovered wasn’t, is now fixed, and we have extended earlybird til 3rd April as a result.
And the GREAT news – there will be a masseuse at camp! At festival rates $1 per minute.
This is so exciting and relaxing at the same time. How often can you leave your tent, walk over to another tent and get a massage!!! Hooray!
Village Wild – Early Bird Extension – Booking Glitch fixed.
I was thinking…gee bookings are going slow for what may be our best camp yet…and then I saw that the add to cart option had disappeared. Apologies to those that tried to book in. We have extended the earlybird as a result. Book by the 30 March to get your discount.
Village Wild Earlybird Rates for the next 10 days and then we get to see Eva on Alone!!!
Book now if you want to take advantage of the earlybird rates. You may notice that we have taken off the family booking fee to make it easier to work out your prices – overall totals are very similar to last camp – with a tiny bit more for the mentors who are still working at slave labour rates.
And only 13 more sleeps til we get to see Eva test out her survival skills on Alone. So excited!
Teen Hike as part of our next Be Wild Village
So after the success of our last Teen hike, we are offering it again. This time as part of the Village Wild 23-27 April at Ourimbah. Eva has discovered a magical camp spot that the Teens can hike to from 40 acres. The hike will be shortish distance wise, so we have more time to explore, craft, hang out, play, create. The terrain will be wild in places.
Got a Teen that needs to get out and connect with other Teens???
Sign them up for the Teen Hike at the Base of the Barringtons – It will be the best things they do all holidays!!!
There are spaces still available – Monday 20 to Wednesday 22 January 2025. Bookings close Wednesday 15 Jan.
We have a mix Teens already booked – currently from 12 to 15 years – male and female and a terrific line up of experienced mentors.
2 days left before the Earlybird finishes for the Summer Be Wild Village Camp at the wonderful Wangat Lodge
Book now to secure your spot.
Guess who is joining the team for our Summer Village!! Master Storyteller, playful adventurer, singer and nature connection weaver……..Drum roll……… Mahli Hawke!
So this camp will be a combo of Wild Beings, Wild By Nature and Wildcraft – that’s a pretty awesome line up of facilitators. Hooray!!
Our Village Camps started 8 years ago thanks to Mahli Hawke saying ‘Let’s give it a go!’. With him these camps grew and flourished. He then felt the call of the North. Thankfully by some miracle we crossed paths with the Wild Beings crew, who came on board to fill the rather big gap that was left. And now this camp we are so lucky that Mahli and his family are going to join us once again.
So if you have never been to one of our village camps, or you want to come again, this summer camp at Wangat Lodge is the one to join!!
