DETAILED plans have been released for a High Country Hall of Fame, a new business venture that is proposing to bring an additional 20,000 people and $1.4 million to the local economy.

The brainchild of Merrijig cattleman Charlie Lovick, the High Country Hall of Fame (HCHF) will be a one stop shop for visitors - promising a unique country experience with a mix of entertainment, education and local history thrown in.

Proposed to be built on Mr Lovick’s Merrijig property, the HCHF will be built to resemble a traditional bushman’s hut - with reclaimed timbers and local materials used throughout.
