Bixbus Tent Community Register, 21 August 2018
The fourth day of the Bixbus Tent Community. The last two of the fourteen military tents went up, every cot brought through in the raid was standing, and Aaron Smyth laid out the zones, supply area, and wash area that turned the lines of canvas into a planned camp.

Conditions
The last two tents went up by early afternoon, and with them the whole of the raid's stock was standing: fourteen medium tents and 252 cots. With nothing left to put up, the rest of the day went on turning the rows into a camp. Aaron Smyth divided the ground into zones, separating sleeping tents from communal space, and set out a central supply area where food and tools could be handed out, along with wash areas and a proper arrangement of latrines.
For the first time, Bixbus had more beds standing than it had people. Fewer than a hundred settlers lived in the settlement, and most of them had moved under canvas or were about to.
