Photography Field Trip Gracetown Accommodation

Hi Guys

The plan is for us to travel south on Monday 30th October 2023 and return to Perth on Friday 3rd November 2023, staying away for 4 nights.  We plan to touch on all the recent workshops and provide members the opportunity to practice taking photos of landscapes, flowers, birds, wildlife, macrophotography and astrophotography.

As discussed during the Workshop on Thursday, we have provisionally booked accommodation in the Gracetown Caravan Park for 12 members to stay 4 nights from Monday 30 October to Friday 3 November 2023.

The accommodation proposed is centrally located for our proposed photo shoots and offers each member a separate bedroom.  The Caravan Park also has large undercover cooking and barbeque area which would be ideal for our evening meals.

To get a better idea of the accommodation and the facilities please refer to the Gracetown Caravan Park website at: https://www.gracetowncaravanpark.com.au

The choices are:

1. 2 bedroom chalets with kitchen & bathroom (3 off) – daily rate is $80/person for a total of $320 for 4 nights.
2. 1 bedroom Cabins with kitchen & bathroom (5 off)  - daily rate is $130/person for a total of $520 for 4 nights.
3. On Site Caravan (1 off)– daily rate $100 for a total of $400 for 4 nights.
4. Powered Caravan Sites (BYO Caravan) – several available at $39/night for a total of $156 for 4 nights.

In order to secure the accommodation, we request that members book and pay for either a chalet bedroom, own Cabin or on site caravan by select one of the “Ticket” options #1, #2 or #3 below by 5pm Thursday 20 July 2023.  Otherwise our bookings will lapse.

If you plan to bring your own caravan, we recommend that you select Ticket #4 below for our planning purposes, but you must arrange and pay for that site directly with the Gracetown Caravan Park.

I hope you can join us.
