🌸 YYMS Women’s Camp 2026 – Caroline Pool 🌸
What an incredible two days of connection, healing, laughter, culture and wellbeing at our YYMS Women’s Camp 2026 held at the beautiful Caroline Pool.
This year, we were overwhelmed by the support from our community, with 71 women registered to attend. On Day 1, we welcomed 54 women (excluding children), and on Day 2, 57 women joined us for another meaningful day together.
Throughout the camp, women had the opportunity to participate in a range of activities designed to nurture wellbeing, strengthen cultural connections and create space for self-care, including:
✨ Haircuts
✨ Massage therapy
✨ Facial and body treatments
✨ Bush medicine sessions
✨ Art therapy
✨ Cultural cook-ups
✨ Yarning around the fire
More importantly, this camp created a safe and welcoming space where women could come together to share stories, experiences, knowledge and laughter. Around the campfire, during activities and over shared meals, we built connections, supported one another, and created memories that will stay with us long after the camp ended.
The strength, resilience and generosity shown by every woman who attended made this camp truly special. Seeing women connect across generations, share their journeys and celebrate culture together was a powerful reminder of the importance of community and belonging.
A heartfelt thank you to all the women who took the time to attend, participate and contribute to making this camp such a success. Your presence, stories, smiles and willingness to connect are what brought this gathering to life.
We would also like to extend our sincere gratitude to our facilitators, service providers, Elders, staff, volunteers, and everyone who worked behind the scenes to make the camp possible. Your dedication, care and support helped create a meaningful experience for all involved.
💜 Thank you for showing up, supporting one another, sharing your stories and making YYMS Women’s Camp 2026 a beautiful celebration of wellbeing, culture, connection and community.
We look forward to seeing you all again next year. Until then, keep connected, keep strong and keep looking after one another.
💜🌿✨
