This time it’s another BlazeAid camp at Woolooga, which is about 40 minutes from Gympie in Queensland. This area got severely flooded earlier in the year.

The camp opened in January and closes in a couple of weeks. It’s a small one with only two trailers, but still amazing. Fantastic volunteers make it easy to work. We should have got here earlier.
The camp is special because it’s based at Brooyar Station. The owners generously offered to have the camp on their beautiful cattle property. We have been privileged to be near the workings of the farm. Not a motorbike in sight, as they only use horses.
I even turned into an assistant calf rearer with Kerri the camp coordinator. Diesel the big Brahman, Boots the cream Charolais-Brahman X and Cadbury the brown Angus-Brahman X were all without a mother. After much trial and error to get them to suckle on a teat they liked, we got them going.

All different personalities and sooooo cute. It’s really enjoyable and rewarding to see them finally thriving, even with all the head butting.
Not many fencing pics, as I got asked to be the cook. Luckily not too many people to cater for. Mark has turned mountain goat going up and down riverbanks.

It’s all part of being with BlazeAid helping the farmers who have gone through so much.
