Hiking Victoria is a "Gold" (Premium) Board, hosted by the Canadian-based Company "Sparklit". It's funded by voluntary donations from members. Donations pay for the Board's ongoing hosting expenses, and keep it ad-free and provide for many additional features, including uploading of images, and unique headers, footers, and graphics, and the facility for the Administrator to send announcements and news direct to all members at their E-mail addresses.
