Membership Renewal
Please note that membership subscriptions are due July 1.
We have implemented a new Membership Subscription process on our website which is designed to automate the process as much as possible. This will give us more time to get out and about doing the stuff we love!
If you have registered on the website but not paid a subscription fee but would like to do so now, the process described below will work for you as well. If you have been part of a family membership that arrangement will continue with the new system - select a subscription plan appropriate to your family circumstances.
Payment of your subscription will require you to login to the MVB website to edit your profile.

What We've Been Up To
Sat June 29 Around Mt Pilot
Hans completed a circumnavigation of Mt Pilot and is the MVB expert on this part of the Chiltern Mt Pilot NP. Hans wrote on his Facebook site
A wonderful walk around Mt Pilot on a beautiful winter's day. The first signs of spring: Wattle blossoms (Blackwood) and a dwarf greenhood (native orchid)
First signs of spring is not much consolation for those of us hanging out for the first evidence of winter - SNOW
