B&B is BACK!!
From 1st December the Bold and Beautiful Swim Squad will resume. This means that the regular daily 7 am group swim will recommence. We request that you note the following:
- Current NSW government regulations do not require a Covid Plan for outdoor active recreation activities with up to 1000 fully vaccinated adults. If you are not fully vaccinated, please refrain from swimming with the group until Government regulations allow.
- Maintain physical distancing. NSW Health advice is to help reduce the risk of COVID-19 infection by staying 1.5 metres away from other people where possible and avoiding close contact with people you do not live with. In order to stay safe, please observe all Government requirements related to this aspect. It would be helpful and safer if swimmers use the beach, rather than the walkway to gather before and after the swim.
- Log your swim on our log-in site (HERE), so that we have a means of assisting contact tracing should this become necessary. If you don’t have a log-in, please sign up here.
- Be aware of and courteous to other swimmers. There will be many swimmers in the bay at once. If you collide with another swimmer, please stop and check that there has been no injury sustained, and the other swimmer does not need assistance.
Our information desk will operate every day from 6.30 to 7 am. New swimmers can sign up at that time and collect their free pink cap, courtesy of Manly Paradise Beachfront Motel and Apartments.
Volunteers Greeters Needed
In order to lighten the load on our regular and aging team, we are calling for volunteers to assist by helping at our information desk each morning to greet and induct new swimmers. You can volunteer for a regular day (weekly, fortnightly or monthly), or for random, backup assistance. You will need to be at Manly before 6.30 am to set up the desk and be able to pack away the desk after your swim. Training will be provided if required. Please contact Ian(ugoboyo@gmail.com) if you can assist. This is your chance to help ensure that our treasured group continues to flourish.
