DBSC Members Competency Training
Steven London
An important reminder from the club’s Safety Officer:
Dear DBSC members,
9am this Saturday is our annual competency day. Andrew Cox, our ex-commodore, will review how to run a race. Pat Levy will demonstrate and update us on how to use RIBs, davits and other club equipment safely on rostered volunteer days. I will brief on how to respond to on-water incidents (plus refresh some basic resuscitation knowledge).
There are changes every year, and all members are expected to attend, as well as anyone who may be on-water in a support capacity during the year, even if not in a formally designated role. The briefings should be wrapped up by 11am allowing everyone time to either to do some boat work, enjoy a toastie or go for a coffee prior to our race briefing at 1pm. It's also a good opportunity for members to discuss issues they've experienced and ideas for the future.
All the best,
David Murphy
