ORCA Australia Reunion 2023
Orca Australia (OA) is proud to announce its long-awaited reunion scheduled to be held this year in 2023. It has been more than five years since we last met in Canberra in 2016, a time span that partially prolonged due to the unprecedented pandemic circumstances that we have had to endure. However, this is now time again to reunite, rejoice and drench in pure nostalgia along with friends and families!!
The Reunion committee had to book all the available cottages, hence booking of the accommodation must be made through OA for the same price and terms and conditions advertised by the venue operators. The cottages will be allotted on a first come first serve basis. That means, whoever transfers the money for the accommodation to the Orca Australia account first, will get the priority to get the cottages if the specific types are available.
Booking of the accommodation will start straight after the announcement from MC of OA and must be completed on or before 31st July 2023, at which point all unallotted cottages held by Orca Australia will have to be released back to WSLR authority. Failure to book within the above timeline would imply that booking would have to be made through WSLR admin if cottages remain available till then. Otherwise, accommodation booking would have to be made with a hotel/Airbnb close to the venue by the members on their own.
Wollongong Surf Leisure Resort (WSLR) is a beachside (South Pacific Ocean) resort in Wollongong on the South Coast of New South Wales. WSLR is just one hour’s drive from Sydney and less than 5km from the middle of Wollongong.
WSLR have a large range of accommodation suitable for families, couples, individuals, and groups - their accommodation includes holiday apartments, bungalows, cabins, and grassed caravan and camping powered sites and non-powered sites.
