18.01.2022 A reminder to our members we are operating under a COVID Safe plan. Do not come to the club if you are sick. You need to bring your own towel and you must use it on all the equipment. ... You must wipe all the equipment you use with disinfectant before and after use. Bring your water bottle full of water to avoid congregating at water stations. Maintain 1.5m distance from staff and members.

18.01.2022 Most of you guys are good eggs, we know that you don’t need to be told. Just a reminder to follow our COVID policy to ensure we maintain a clean environment to workout for everyone.

17.01.2022 Hey there, what a good bunch of eggs GHRC members are! We are doing really well, and following the rules. Yay us! We just want to clarify the mask wearing situation. QLD Health have said that masks are mandatory to carry at all times, and to wear inside. There is an exemption to the rule, that is if you are doing strenuous exercise. Strenuous exercise was defined at aerobic level, or 70-80% of your maximal heart rate. So, huffy puffy mask off, no huffy puffy mask on. S...ome people have exemptions to the rule; some health issues will be aggravated by the wearing of masks, therefore those people will not be required to wear a mask; just let reception know on the way in I have an exemption, we don’t need why, we just need to know who. If you have concerns, please chat to reception or contact Jess on [email protected] - we will help explain the situation or rectify the situation. GHRC is working hard to provide a safe environment for everybody. We need to follow the requirements as a community so we can continue to offer the great facilities you care about. Please remember to bring your gym towels, wipe down your equipment after use, and use the hand sanitiser that’s available around the gym. WE LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOUR FACE .... next week
