Changes to Covid-19 self isolation requirements

David McKelvey

The NSW government recently changed the requirements regarding self isolation for those who test positive to Covid 19.

NSW Health, however, strongly recommends people who are sick or have tested positive to COVID-19 stay home until their symptoms have gone.

https://www.nsw.gov.au/covid-19/management

VA12SC asks that any members who have recently tested positive to Covid 19, or are experiencing any flu like symptoms, do not attend the club until they are symptom free. In this way we can help protect the health of other members, and, in particular, the vulnerable members of our community.

We thank you for your understanding and assistance.

VA12SC

Collect your gear!

David McKelvey

We have HEAPS of unclaimed gear sitting around the club… lifejackets, wetsuits, spray jackets, booties, socks… the list goes on….

If you have gear left at the club, please collect it this weekend. Anything left lying around the club will be collected and donated to kids who need some gear to get into the sport.

thanks everyone!

If you havent renewed and you wish to continue to be a member of our great little club, please jump online and renew your membership so that you can continue sailing and using the facilities.
