VHCHA - Our Charter
Our Charter
1. Publicise our groups existence widely. We are a non-political group whose mission is to care for high country huts that still exist and any future huts that may be rebuilt.
2. Conduct as comprehensive inventory of hut status, for huts in both National Parks and on State land, primarily in the bushfire affected areas, and then in non affected areas.
3. Lobby all stakeholders to have damaged huts repaired, and burnt huts that are in strategic safe havens eg Ropers Hut, rebuilt. The precedence has already been set with the rebuilding of Fitzgerald's and Tawonga huts after fires.
4. Once we have determined hut repair / rebuild needs and obtain the appropriate authority, set about getting our hands dirty, canvassing for donations of materials and labour from other stakeholders e.g. 4wd, bushwalking & ski clubs and applying for grants.
