MemberBased in Adelaide, South Australia, the Legacy Kokoda Fraternity (LKF) is a social network of adventurers who have walked the Kokoda Track or those who intend to do so. It was formed in early 2009 and now has more than 300 members.
As a common interest network, the LKF organises occasional social functions with guest speakers and other events such as regular weekend walks and information sessions for trekkers aspiring to walk the Kokoda Track.

MemberOur group of 12 trekkers (July 2009) raised funds for Legacy in Sydney.
It would be good if they could arrange a similar 'club' here.27/01/2010 at 9:48 am #103880Wokabaut Meri
MemberSounds like a good idea – happy to pass on any details that may help. Would be great to have this network go country-wide.
