"Hi CREST
WICEN supports the Hawkesbury Canoe Classic (HCC) each year - a job
which requires around 45+ operators. The HCC is an overnight event and
this year it is being held on 28-29 October.
I am writing to see if any of your members are interested in working
with us on this event by staffing or assisting at one or more
checkpoints. With a little notice I'm sure we can accommodate
non-amateurs by using more commercial channels.
Regards
Steven Heimann"
