This weekend sees the ACT facing its worst fire conditions
since 2003, with high temperatures, strong winds, poor air quality, and a
bushfire out of control in the Namadgi National Park. Given this combination,
Rowing ACT has decided to cancel this weekend’s CGS Regatta. This is to make
sure that athletes, coaches, volunteers, staff, spectators and families are not
put under duress, and that everyone has the opportunity to prepare themselves
and their properties for all eventualities.
Rowing ACT will now work towards holding a replacement regatta on Yarramundi Reach on Saturday February 22.
We hope that everyone stays safe during this time.
All of
the ACT rowing community are invited to our first Performance Pathways meeting
hosted by the new Rowing ACT Head Coach, Dave Fraumano. The meeting will be on
3 February 2020 and start at 6:30pm.
This a session where we will come together as a community, and work together to develop our sport.
In this
meeting, we will be speaking about safety, and processes for continuing the
improvement of our on water rowing performances.
The
meeting will go for 60mins and will be held at the ACTAS Shed at 14 Alexandrina
Drive, Yarralumla.
