Ashley Gorge Gala Day 2025 – Save the Date!

Mark your calendars for Thursday, 6th February 2025, from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM, and get ready for a day of fun, laughter, and community spirit at the beautiful Ashley Gorge Reserve!

Last year’s gala was an incredible success, raising funds for the brand-new easy-access lookout walk, which officially opened in November and has already become a favorite for locals and visitors alike.

This year, we’re aiming even higher! All proceeds from the 2025 Gala will go towards building a much-needed Information Kiosk Shelter, so everyone can learn more about the history and wonders of Ashley Gorge.

Grab your friends, rally your neighbors, and join us for a day to remember. Let’s come together to make a difference and create something truly special for our community.

We can’t wait to see you there!
