Camping, Outdoors and Accommodation Co-operative Ltd
The Business Council of Cooperatives and Mutuals discusses everything you need to know about co-operatives in Australia, plus the "What is a Co-operative" video provides an easy to understand explanation of Australian co-operatives.
The Camping, Outdoors and Accommodation Co-operative Ltd (COA Coop) aims to provide an avenue where Australians can come together, pool resources and affordably own their own share of this great big, beautiful country of ours. The more people that invest in the COA Coop means the more properties it can buy for members collective use. Imagine being able to plan a trip around Australia and camp at properties where you are a part owner and don't have to pay a single cent to camp at or have somewhere to drive your off road vehicle any time you want or to be part of a community where it is legal to permanently park your tiny house. This is the COA Coop vision.
The COA Coop does NOT expect members to be a part of any committee, run raffles or do working bees as we understand life is busy enough. The purpose of the COA Coop is to provide the land, which is appropriate for you to go camping, or to explore the great outdoors with your off road vehicle, or grow your own food on your tiny house plot and much more. However a stipulation of being an 'active' member as per the rules of COA Coop is that you simply:
- Subscribe to the COA Coop newsletter or electronic copy of communication; and
- Attend at least one General Meeting, member or community event per calendar year; or
- Stay, reside, camp or participate in outdoor activities on a COA Coop property during a calendar year.
As described in the rules, 'the primary activity of COA Coop, is the acquisition of land for Camping and Outdoor activities, permanent and temporary Accommodation'.
COA Coop is regulated by the NSW Government Office of Fair Trading.
