WHOOSH!!!
WHAT IS WHOOSH?
Whoosh Camp is a national camp for Deaf, deafblind, and hard-of-hearing Australians aged 18-35. It’s all about that exhilarating feeling of “Whoosh!” First organized by the Deaf Youth Australia board in 2019, this leadership camp offers captivating presentations, engaging workshops, and fun activities designed to empower and connect young Deaf and hard-of-hearing Australians, helping them build the skills and confidence to become leaders in our community. Get ready to feel the “Whoosh” all weekend long!
Whoosh Camp is a proud focus of Deaf Youth Australia, and something we’ve been passionately working on for a long time. The goal of this camp is to bring together current and emerging leaders to enhance their confidence and knowledge, equipping them to take on leadership roles in our community.
We’re excited to introduce our sub-committee members for this year’s Whoosh Camp:
Cassie, Lolita, Sakura, Steph, Todd, and Tracey. We’re thrilled to have them on board and assisting with our 2024 program!
This camp is for Deaf, deafblind, and hard-of-hearing Australians aged 18-35.
The total cost for Whoosh Camp is $400 per person. This covers 2 nights of accommodation, all meals (from Friday dinner to Sunday lunch), entry to the DYA Social Night, and activities, and helps cover the cost of resources and presenter fees. Participants can request an invoice for NDIS to cover the fee if their plan permits it.
