BOOMI COMMUNITY CO-OP / ACCOMMODATION / FOOD
Hot Artesian Spa and Pool complex
The pool complex was built in 1976 and the hot spa
added in1996. The mineral rich water flows from nearly a mile
underground. This original bore at Boomi was opened in 1903 which must
have been a remarkable engineering achievement at the time.
The swimming pool complex consists of a cold 25m
pool, a children’s
wading pool and a hot pool which has two overhead jets. Artesian water
comes from deep underground and is rich in minerals, the water can be
up to 2 million years old. It has long been known in many cultures that
the water has healing and restorative powers.

Accommodation/ Food
In 2007 100 plus community members formed a not for profit cooperative
with the aim of providing a convenience store and café for
Boomi.<br>
A Co-op owned Caravan Park and camping facility with modern ablution
block is located adjacent to the Pool complex.<br>
The Boomi Community Co-Op Pty Ltd operates a shop and caravan park 7
days/week.<br>
The shop/cafe has all the needs of travellers and locals, from
groceries to hot food and cappuccinos. The Co-op has also provided a
24hr diesel fuel facility in conjunction with IOR Petroleum.<br>
Please enquire about special packages combining pool entry and caravan
park for travellers staying for more than 3 days<br>
Historical tours are available numbers permitting<br>
The Boomi Co-op would like to thank all the people who have donated
time and money to this project. The Moree Plains Shire Council has
given constant support to our project. FRRR (Foundation for Rural and
Regional Renewal) funded the ablution block and other items and
recently Monsanto has contributed to our Solar project. BATS (Boomi
Amateur Thespian Society) has been a constant source of funding for our
co-op and many other groups in our area. On top of this we have
received financial and other support from caravanners who admire what
we are doing for our community and want to be a part of it.
Just visiting us and enjoying our little village is itself a wonderful
help and we really appreciate it.<br>
