WOOROOMA WORKING BEE COVID PLAN
Bring a personal supply of RAT tests, hand sanitiser, soap and face masks with you.
Wash your hands with soap or hand sanitiser often, before eating, after the toilet and before handling food. Avoid touching your face, mouth and nose.
Covid-19 symptoms may be fever, cough, sore throat, shortness of breath, loss of smell or taste. If you have symptoms before leaving home please do not come to Woorooma. If you develop symptoms on your way, you and your party of fellow travellers in the vehicle need to turn around and return home. Once on site, if you become concerned you have Covid; Test, and if positive, inform organisers. For the safety of all, pack and leave the site IMMEDIATELY with whoever you arrived with in one car.
If you share a vehicle with others on site or to make excursions into town for supplies who are not family or from your party of fellow travellers please wear a face mask as if you were using public transport. When sharing a vehicle try to keep the windows open rather than have stuffy air recirculating. Similarly, although there are very few enclosed buildings on site, avoid entering them unless essential, dawdling or congregating inside and please wear a face mask while inside. Stay in the fresh air as much as possible.
There is a great deal of room on site and no need to squeeze your tents and vans together especially if you are not a family or a party of fellow travellers.
If businesses in town (Mooulamein, Swan Hill, Deniliquin etc.) have covid requirements, please follow those requirements.
Communal food preparation requires safe food handling methods. Always wash your hands before you begin. Wash dishes and cooking utensils in hot soapy water. Replace and wash tea towels to sanitise them regularly. Bring a good supply of your own freshly washed tea towels. Bring washing up gloves, detergent, sponges etc.
Respect other people's personal space if they prefer to keep some distance from you. Don't touch, hug or kiss without asking for and receiving explicit permission.
