ULYSSES CLUB, YARRA RANGES BRANCH – CORONAVIRUS UPDATE 13:
Message from the President
BRUNCH CAFÉ AND CLUB KILSYTH
I have just gotten off the phone from Ken from Brunch who has advised that Brunch will be closed as from this Saturday (4/7/2020) until further Notice.
He and Amanda are concerned regarding the latest Coronavirus outbreak and lock down of several suburbs and do not wish to contribute to the possible spread of the virus to their customers.
Ken stated with twenty (20) patrons permitted within the premises and only 10 outside it is difficult to operate as they both feel it is not viable to continue to function at this time. Amanda and Ken regret this decision however the safety of their customers is paramount.
Ken will keep me informed and when the Government Restrictions are relaxed or lifted, we can get back to enjoying Brunch.
I have again been in contact with Laura from Club Kilsyth who has advised that the return of patrons within Club Kilsyth is being reviewed monthly. Due to limited numbers there will be no social functions at Club Kilsyth for July 2020, but it is hoped restrictions maybe relaxed in the coming months to allow patrons to return in sufficient numbers.

Advice to our members from the Welfare Officer:
I am asking you to use common sense when it comes to dining out with your family or friends, especially those who are more vulnerable and have pre-existing Medical Conditions or are in the 65 plus age group.
Spacing of 1.5 metres between individuals is required.
We cannot have the attitude I am happy to take the risk and give my good friend a hug etc, however,we need to not think of ourselves and thumb our noses at what is going on, we are not bullet proof. Look at it from your mates point of view, it is not me that I am protecting, I am protecting my friend, because, I wish to ride with him/her for many years to come. With this attitude we will help keep our older friends safe as well as ourselves.
Do not think of how the club can help me, but what I can do for the club’s safety.
