The VOC huts are maintained by volunteer (student) members and can only exist with the help of donations from its users. Over 2024 and 2025, our club performed three renovations on two of our huts, involving thousands of volunteer labour-hours and a cost exceeding $100 000. If you are using the hut, please pay the 15 dollars fee so we can keep maintaining our huts for generations to come! 
You could pay online on this site before or after your stay or put it in the blue lock box inside the hut. This money is exclusively for goods to maintain the huts and their trails. All of the hard labor is done by volunteers. 
Paying for the hut in advance does not in any way reserve a spot in the hut, so remember- There is always room for one more!
