[Members] Re: LH3 Picnic

For those who read the previous notice carefully, you would have found my deliberate mistakes. The date is Sunday 13th January, not the 12th January, as it appeared in two places in the previous notice. Also note that there are no costs, fees or hidden charges for the picnic. On On Udder   FROM: Linda Anderson-Berry SENT: Tuesday, 24 November 2020 10:53 AM TO: Member Discussion SUBJECT: [Members] LH3 Update - we're back - and picnic   Good morning all   This is the email I have been hanging out to write.   1. With the relaxing of the Covid rules I think we can safely say WE'RE BACK and runs can be as close to normal as they are likely to be for the next few months.   2. We are planning a LAKESIDE END OF THE YEAR PICNIC on Sunday 13 December - the flyer with all the details is attached.   I want to thank everyone for their patience and support for LH3 over the last many months - it has been a difficult and trying year - with lots of bumps but also many high points. I acknowledge that it is not really over yet - there is still risk and there will be rules for a while yet - but hopefully the worst is behind us.   The picnic is a way of celebrating this - thanks to Udder, Gargoyle, Cheesecake, Klingon and Pythag for their contributions to the planning. Hopefully many of you can make it. Peanuts and I will get there early and secure a large area on the grass for us - so we can keep some social distancing. As always it is totally up to individual hashers and their own assessment of personal risk on whether and how they attend - (sanitiser - masks etc).   With the relaxed rules for outdoor exercising and gatherings I am assuming that our Covid Safe plan for runs can be revised. I doubt there is a need for any additional registration sheets for DHHS purposes so - if you sign the book it should be enough - our contact list is up to date (one of the few successes I have had as GM!!). The hare should probably note any visitors and get phone numbers please - just to be safe. ( and ALWAYS ADHERING TO THE CURRENT RULES AND RESTRICTIONS)   A few big thank you's for now - for those who have helped keep the wheels on over the really difficult period and keep members connected. 1. The E&B  for organising the weekly zoom sessions - I doubt she has missed a week - even with home-schooling and housebound teen and tween - agers   2. Cheesecake for keeping the Bayside break-away group in touch and motivated - with even the occasional walk and opportunities to happen to 'run into'  each other   3. Klingon, Pog, TwoPac, and other self-labeled Lock down 'renegade' hashers - for keeping runs going for those who wanted to join in and staying within the rules.   4. Udder - for his 'always cheerful and very sage' support.   5. To everyone who has checked in on others over the months in lockdown   I am aware that we are not totally out of it yet - but I am sure we are on the way and against all odds it looks like we will all come out of it friends ...........   Looking forward to seeing as many as possible on the 13th - and any runs before then ON ON   Cyclone 👣👣
