Last Wednesday’s fire was another very special one - with a visit by Sue Woods! And always great to see Peter Westoby and Rachael Donovan around the fire again. 🥰

Thanks to Huss for bringing the topic, inspired by his recent trip to Bali. 🕉

🔥 How have ceremonies or rituals impacted your life?

This Friday evening at 5:15pm! 🌟 Join community development practitioners Peter Westoby and Rachael Donovan for an evening of conversation, challenge and practical insight as we explore one of the most important questions facing Alice Springs: how do we become a community that hears itself better?

The evening will also include the official Alice Springs launch of The Community Builder's Journal, a practical companion for anyone interested in building stronger, more connected communities.

Whether you're involved in a community group, business, school, neighbourhood, sporting club, government—or simply care about the future of Alice Springs—you are warmly invited.

Come ready to listen, and maybe leap a little differently.

Big thanks to Sue and Mike Pitt for gifting us their talents and energy the past 5 weeks - including gardening, building, fixing, sewing, cooking and chicken-whispering! 🐓 Such a special time together🥰

Around the fire last Wednesday we also farewelled Em off on her travels ✈ and welcomed OJ Rushton back to the fire, here to celebrate with Hazel Davies the launch of the Anthem of the Desert Pea music video. 🎶🎬

The topic around the fire was:
🔥Tell us about a memorable gift you've received?

It was a pleasure hosting the latest 'Come to Dinner' event at Campfire in the Heart! 🤩

There were many reasons to celebrate at Campfire Reflection last night! 🎉At least three birthdays, bon voyage to Jeff and also the 20th anniversary of the first time Jorge & Nicola met, at that fateful garage sale on Crown Street, Surry Hills 💫Which led to our topic for reflection around the fire...

🔥When have you found a treasure in an unexpected place?
