20th-25th July Lake Eyre- Base Camp Alberrie Creek Station S.A.
AHOY peeps headin to Lake Eyre – don’t Forget to bring enough water for drinking, cooking, washing etc. At this point no one is bringing a water tank so everyone needs to be responsible for their own water. THERE IS NO WATER THERE! We will have a basic communal kitchen setup but bring food to share & vital camping gear, swags, tents, head torches, safely secured spare gas bottles, tools, shovels, solar lights, firewood etc. It’s very cold at night & it’s very dark. Aim to be self-sufficient.

There is a Car Pool happening on facebook

Message from Uncle Kevin Buzzacott:
“I’m calling for volunteers to help set up the camp at Alberrie Creek, near Lake Eyre SA. Anyone who could transport gear, work at the camp or pick up 2nd hand collections are welcome. We’re looking for donations of chairs, lounges, tables, tents, tarps, cooking gear etc to make the camp comfortable. Crew will be heading up soon to make a start, so join in where you can. Thanks for support so far. This is a very important mission we’re taking on to free West Papua.”

If you can’t make it please support us by kindly donating to this courageous action
