Current GRC COVID Rules - Changes in Red

1. Mandatory Check-in by QR Code or book

We now have a QR code that you can use to sign-in. Ensure you sign-in if you are in the shed for any reason.

If you go on the water you still need to write your name and boat into the book.

2. Maximum of 10 people per bay

Be considerate of others. Move in and out of the bays quickly. If rowing an 8+ consider moving it to the grassed area for set up to allow others to use the bay.

3. Maximum of 20 people upstairs

4. Maximum of 15 people using the upstairs exercise equipment

5. Rowing equipment: Wash down boats and oars with soapy water after every use.

6. Gym equipment: Sanitize before and after each use.

7. Coxed boats (8+, 4+)

  1. Cox must wear a mask
  2. Cox must sanitise the cox box and cables

Brian "Sammy" Holst

There have been a great many tributes to, stories about and photos of Sammy shared since we learned the sad news. He lives in those shared stories.

Funeral arrangements: many members have asked about funeral arrangements. We’re staying in touch and as soon as we have information we’ll share it with everyone. Under COVID rules there may be limitations on numbers and if there are, we’ll look at ways to show our support.

Also, the Committee is working on several ways to remember him in more formal ways. We’ll provide more information soon.

No Rowing Without a Bow Ball!

Bow balls are safety nets (like a seatbelt in your car) the Committee will not tolerate members taking boats out that have missing or broken bow balls. Please be mindful.

This will be a small Working Bee focusing on shed cleaning and urgent boat maintenance.
