COME AND HELP OUT/HAVE A LOOK AT THE

AUSTRALIA DAY (ish) TRIATHLON WEEKEND

FIT members, family and friends are asked to help out at the upcoming Australia Day Triathlon Festival weekend, 27-29 January.

You don't need any experience -- just be willing to do all sorts of stuff and watch some fabulous racing at the same time! It's great to be able to give something back to the sport many of us enjoy so much by volunteering at an event like this, so please consider putting your hand up, even if you can only spare an hour or so.

People are needed to assist with registration, marshalling along courses, on recovery stations, chopping fruit/supplying water and other such tasks:

  • Friday 27th January: 3-6pm
  • Saturday 28th January: 8.45am - 4pm and
  • Sunday 29th January: 6.30am - 11am

The event will be held at Rond Terraces, Parkes Way (at the bottom of Anzac Parade). For more information see the http://res.au.eventdirector.net/TACT/SITES/1717/

This is always a great, fun weekend of racing for people at all levels -- there'll be up to  500 athletes from across Australia participating -- the Aussie juniors are on Saturday,  so you might even see some future Olympic champions!!

If you can help please ring FIT volunteer coordinator Peta Miller on 0421585128 or email peta.miller@safeworkaustralia.gov.au as soon as possible. Please let her know the dates and times you can help and any  ‘helping preferences’.
