With the expected heatwave this week and the prospect of daily maximums exceeding 40 degrees, Victoria’s Chief Health Officer has issued a Heat Warning.
Full details can be found at http://docs.health.vic.gov.au/docs/doc/Heat-Health-Alert-Monday-13-to-Friday-17-January-2014
In these extreme conditions, the following training will not be permitted on Tuesday – Friday this week:
- on-water training after 10am
- all off-water training at the clubhouse or outdoors
In the interests of personal safety, I look forward to everyone’s cooperation.
