  • Receive the monthly newsletter, 'Argus', featuring route information and Victorian climbing news.
  • Participate in club trips to various climbing locations, organised by experienced members.

    3. Select 'I forgot my password' and follow the prompts to set a password for your new account.
    4. Go back to the VCC Membership page and log in using your new password
    5. Your account now shows 'Guest Membership'.
  3. Apply for guest membership. Locate the 'Guest' membership and select 'Register'. Follow the prompts to register - no payment is required. Note: You will only see 'Guest' membersjhip when you are logged into the VCC Member Portal.
