A full day of adventure, community and mental fitness

10-Year Anniversary Celebrations

Join us for two daytime experiences before the main 10-Year Anniversary Dinner event.

For ten years, The Fly Program has brought people together through adventure and nature to support mental fitness in our male community. Choose a daytime experience, celebrate with family and friends, then continue into the evening at our main anniversary dinner.

SATURDAY 7 NOVEMBER, 2026

Legacy Ride

Beginning in Thredbo Village, the Legacy Ride follows the spectacular Thredbo Valley Track through Kosciuszko National Park. This is not a race. It is a social ride celebrating our people, our community and the benefits that exercise, nature and connection can have on our mental fitness.

Shuttles from both Jindabyne town center and Oaks, Lake Crackenback Resort can be arranged at rider expense if requested.

Community Festival

Not riding? Bring the family, pack a picnic rug and join us beside the beautiful Thredbo River for a relaxed community festival celebrating ten years of The Fly Program.

The festival encourages people to come together through the outdoors and enjoy the activities, values and experiences that are central to The Fly Program. Festival activities are free, with optional donations supporting our mental fitness programs.

ANNIVERSARY DINNER

After the daytime activities, join participants, volunteers, supporters and partners at The Fly Program 10-Year Anniversary Dinner. 

The dinner is the main evening event and is booked separately.

Join us for a special three-course dinner inspired by The Fly Program and the places in which our programs are delivered.
