Hut Fund

Dear Friends from Alpenverein Britannia

Last weekend I visited our Salmhütte again and, as you can see in the picture, the new Britannia Terrace is really crowded in the afternoon. Even at the end of September you can sit outside in the sun and drink a beer with a nice view to Großglockner. It was a beautiful weekend and I climbed Großglockner again with good friends. When we sat on the terrace, I was thinking of you and your generous donation. Thank you again and I hope to meet you next season at the hut! Greetings from Vienna,

Michael Merstallinger, Alpenverein Wien.

In 2017 we donated €40,000 from our hut fund to Alpenverein Wien to build a new extension at the Salmhütte and the new Britannia terrace. Michael's comments show how much our donations are appreciated and we hope that you will continue to give donations to our Hut Fund when you renew your membership! The most recent donation from the Hut Fund was ü30,000 to Sektion Saalfelden towards an extension at the Peter-Wiechenthaler-Hütte. Full report in next newsletter.
