2019 WE QUIT

Soon to be flying free again and feeling on top of the world today because we just quit our jobs. Issuing the park owner with our minimum 2 weeks notice required, with the option to extend to 3 months to assist to train and recruit, he accepted the later so we will continue to do our best through to the end on 21 January or sooner if recruitment and training is successful.

It is bitter sweet as we are very proud of the huge things we achieved , the community we’ve created and the results that speak for themselves. However, it has taken a ridiculous amount of dedication and commitment and you reach a point where fighting a constant uphill battle is no longer worth the fight.

So we will say farewell to the fabulous team of staff we have built around us and goodbye to some seriously lovely residents and see you around again to a number of regular guests we have come to know.

At the time of our departure we are pleased ti focus on the facts that speak for themselves when measuring performance from the start to the end of our management tenure:

  • Tourism Quality Star Rating increased from 3 star to 4 star

  • 41% increase in gross Revenue while reducing comparative salaries and expenditure

  • 28% increase in overall Occupancy

  • A cohesive team unit established with fully documented administrative procedures

  • Introduction of legislative compliance including WH&S and Residential Tenancy

  • Significant capital improvement of existing buildings

    • Converting old rundown caravans to modern parkhomes, income increase over 100%

    • Renovation of old bungalows increasing occupancy and revenue over 40%

    • Onsite sale of old vans to owner occupier improving aesthetic and community satisfaction and park reputation

  • Support new capital development of 18 motel rooms and 38 temporary worker accommodations

  • Compliance and commissioning of new Waste Water Treatment Plant

So we depart with our heads held very high and wishing the very best to our team and future managers.

Looking forward to a well deserved break and back in the bus - the next adventure is in conception faze.
