MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT: NIGHT-TIME IS THE RIGHT TIME!
The Great Mate Check-In Flagship Event is MOVING!
We heard your feedback loud and clear! To ensure everyone in our community can attend, we are shifting our event to a brand new time and a bigger location.
Why the Change? The mid-day timing was stopping too many mates from joining. By moving to a Friday night, we are creating a more accessible, high-energy space where everyone can show up and be part of the change.
THE PURPOSE: CONNECTION IS OUR FUEL
This event is the heart of our mission: dedicated to creating and nourishing genuine in-person connections that break down isolation.
When you attend, you’re not just having a conversation—you’re funding the future of the movement. Every ticket purchased for the TGMC Night-Time Panel Chat directly supports the TGMC Micro-Grants Program. This crucial initiative is dedicated to providing financial backing to local, grassroots organizations, enabling them to facilitate vital in-person connection initiatives within their communities. By attending, you’re not just investing in your own connections, but in the broader health and resilience of our community.
What to Expect on the Day
Prepare for an evening of insightful conversations, genuine connection, and great company. Our Night-Time Panel Chat is designed to be supportive, relaxed, and high-impact.
Exciting Raffle & Prizes: Participate in our popular raffle with a chance to win fantastic items donated by our generous partners, all while funding our in-person connection initiatives.
Inspiring Panel Discussions: Engage with thought-provoking discussions led by community leaders on topics vital to emotional vulnerability, peer support, and connection.
Opportunities for Connection: Ample time to mingle, share stories, and build new friendships in the relaxed, night-time setting of Club Pines.
Delicious Food & Drinks: Enjoy a spectacular three-course meal alongside a great range of drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic options available) in a casual atmosphere.
