At long last we have been able to complete the first set of Motel Units here at Redgum Village.

With the need nowadays for ensuite rooms to suit just about all companies working in West Australia it only seemed right to supply them.

It does come at a huge cost for us as we are a private family business and rely on earnings from guests to pay for the upgrades. Even though we are constantly poring money back into the business we are in a catch 22 where we are damned if we do and go damned if we dont.

Even so every available cent has been used to make this happen as we know the need for the newer refurbished rooms.

The 4 new rooms are comfortable and freshly decorated to suit the immediate need of ensuited rooms. They still need a bit of decorating on the outside , although they are ready for use right now.

More of these units will be added in the very near future and we hope to have 2 more by the end of this year and be in use directly after the new year of 2010.

Trying to finance a expansion project here at Redgum Village in Dandaragan is proving to be a interesting experience.

Banks want so little risk that they are shying away from what we need to do, for they struggle to see guaranteed business income in these uncertain times.

Sure I can see where they are coming from but we have a great business here and we need to get it up to the next level, and that involves borrowing money.

We could look at selling a share of our business to get a cash injection, thats a possibility, with obviouse pros and cons.

We could approach less secure type financers that command extreme interest rates, which has its pros and cons too.

I want to share with you some of my favourite stories from my favourite holiday, Christmas, in my favourite place, Dandaragan.

Christmas in Dandaragan has always been my favourite way to spend the festive season. The town lights up when the firs of December rolls around, literally. Dandaragan road is a spectacle with the many houses covered in wonderful seasonal lights, but you can never miss the main attraction when admiring the Christmas lights, Redgum Village always buts on a terrific show once the sun sets.

The favourite part about Christmas is Dandaragan for me was always enjoying the company of all my family in the country, for a fresh lunch outside in the sun and then spending the rest of the afternoon in the pool or under the sprinklers with my cousins.

Another main event on my families Christmas tradition is our annual staff Christmas party, I is always a fun and relaxing time that usually we spend on the back lawn. However the last few years we have hired out function room at Redgum village in the town of Dandaragan. The casual, warm atmosphere of Redgum Village really does top off the evening.

I doubt that there is a better way to celebrate Christmas. The Dandaragan area is so low key and welcoming to any visitor that you pre or post Christmas celebrations would be very unique and unforgettable.

Your company has just secured a large government project in a remote mining location in West Australia, awesome, great and you are celebrating the victory.

The second thing that you now need to address is how we are going to find accommodation in West Australia for a large group of people without having to transport our own accommodation facility. In other words we need an existing camp nearby that we can use or hire.

When we do a little research on accommodation in west Australia we find a number of options.
We need to search the mid west of west Australia, and from a glance there is not a lot available although once narrowed down, a great little place that is in the mid west and is a accommodation complex in west Australia comes up as the Redgum Village.

The Redgum Village in Dandaragan has the required facility we require. It has:

65 rooms
