The Thoughtians will be out of the practice for a few hours in the middle of today. We will have fun learning new skills and enjoying each other’s company. Today’s Fun Day also doubles as a warm-up for next month’s Family Day 🛼🛹⛸️

We will be advocating for an aquatic facility, which is a higher priority. Outdoor exercise equipment is notoriously underused snd expensive. A suitable aquatic facility with swimming lessons, competitive swimming lanes, diving platforms and hydrotherapy is in far greater demand than micky mouse equipment on a grassy area.

Yarra Ranges Council, if you insist that the Lilydale Aquatic Facility be postponed and that this small scale project be prioritised, we strongly advocate for an outdoor bouldering thing (either to replace the once again decommissioned public toilets on Main Street or at the Lake). Bouldering is popular and not well supplied in these parts. Physiotherapist approved too. Parallel bars are great for people with reduced mobility,

Would you consider throwing your support behind the “Lap The Lake, Lilydale” community health initiative?

Happy to chat. You know where to find us.

We know Lillydale Lake is a much-loved place in Yarra Ranges – it’s where many of us love visiting. So, we’d really love to hear what you think about the concept plan for the active recreation space 💚

As part of the Lillydale Lake Masterplan, we’ve secured Thriving Suburbs funding to upgrade the existing fitness pad and replace ageing equipment.

The proposed new fitness hub is designed to be inclusive, featuring climbing elements, outdoor exercise equipment and a multi-purpose half court.

🌐 Check out the concept plan and images, on our website then tell us what you think: https://shaping.yarraranges.vic.gov.au/lillydale-lake-recreation-hub

Facebook is smart. Called Exercise Thought one of Bree Walker’s “top fans” with 2.25hrs until BobsledBree flies (downhill) with precision toward what we hope is a medal! The Valley holds breath for this Mt Lilydale/Mt Evelyn star. Go Bree!

No clients today, but sending plenty of good vibes to Yarr Valleyian Bree Walker in the finals days before the bobsled events at the 2026 Winter Olympics! If you’d like to watch Bree competing live from Lilydale, get in touch for details. If Mt Lilydale Mercy College puts on a public stream, we wouldn’t be surprised, but if they don’t we will host a small group on Main Street. First event is Sunday 15 Feb 8pm.
