Jondaryan Woolshed to welcome campers in August

Locals were invited to a morning tea at the Jondaryan Woolshed last Saturday, which was hosted by the Toowoomba Regional Council (TRC).

The morning tea was designed to provide the local community with an update on the Jondaryan Woolshed’s construction and expected completion date since the TRC closed the site temporarily in early 2020. 

In the three years the site has been closed, Council workers and volunteers have been bringing the historic buildings up to scratch with health and safety regulations.

However, a TRC spokesperson said there is still a long way to go until the site is open.

They said the Council wants all buildings to be safe and refurbished before they re-open. 

This includes fixing windows, sealing buildings and addressing water leaks that nearly every building’s roof has, including that of the Woolshed.

Despite the camping ground expecting to welcome visitors as early as August 2022, the rest of the grounds (including the Woolshed and Village) will remain closed until a later date. 

The TRC spokesperson  said Council cannot provide a timeline, even suggesting it doesn’t know if it’s within the next two years.
