MenConnect

1-Day Men's Gathering

Baden Powell Park Samford
25/10/2026 9:30 am - 25/10/2026 3:00 pm

Let’s take a day off. Sit in circle.  Have a great lunch and share some time together.

Set at Baden Powell Park in the Samford Valley, this day offers a space to drop the mask, shake off the dust, and reconnect with the man underneath it all.  Whether you’re seeking insight, brotherhood, or just a break from the grind — you’ll find something here.

Join us on the 25th October– for a great day of connection.

The Day Includes:

  • Simple ceremony to open and close
  • Tribal group discussions where real connection happens
  • Space to breathe, stretch, share, or just be
  • A cuppa with mates. Laughter. And a good feed

 

SO, WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS AT MENCONNECT?

That’s a fair question.

There’s no test.

No lecture.

No expectation that you have to stand up and tell your life story.

You’ll spend the day with other men.

There’ll be facilitated conversations, opportunities to reflect, time outdoors, shared experiences, plenty of space to talk—and plenty of space just to be.

Some conversations will go deep.

Some won’t.

There’ll probably be a few laughs along the way.

That’s MenConnect.

Come for the day. See what happens.

Testimonials

I like MenConnect a lot. It’s a simple format, I can go as deep as I like, and I get to see men I care about, all in one day. That’s very cool.

I’ve been to three MenConnect gatherings now and have thoroughly enjoyed them all. There’s something special about the one-day format and venue. I can drop my mask and just be me.

MenConnect is a wonderful day. I love its simplicity and its suitability for men of all experiences and backgrounds.

The group sessions are focused and effective and the breaks provide a really good opportunity to catch up with old friends and make some new ones.

In short, MenConnect is a well-organised, thoughtfully prepared day, delivered well. More please!

In short, it was an excellent day: gathering, getting into the space, setting the intention, getting into groups; the three tribal group sessions were focused and simple; then to regather at the end with a simple affirmation.

Great for men with a range of experiences, and a familiar environment for more experienced men.

Timing of the day’s schedule was perfect. Mike Mee was a warm and skilled tribal group leader. The venue is just beautiful and convenient. Food was really good and due acknowledgement of our host’s troubles was kind.
