WICEN News
The various WICEN exercises last weekend, all competing for per-
sonnel, are now over. Peter Carter VK2ETK, the organiser of the
NSW Long Course Championship Triathlon wants to thank all 32 per-
sonnel attending; they came from Orange, Bathurst, Mudgee, Cowra,
Young, Forbes, Parkes and Sydney. Similarly, Dave VK2KFU would
like to thank all those who made the Bungonia Cave Rescue exer-
cise yet another success. Dave advises that due to heavy concen-
trations of carbon dioxide gas (the dreaded "CO2", which almost
resulted in an "authentic"), the exercise will move to another
month next year, probably October; don't worry -- he has made the
Cave Rescue organisers aware of the other events that month.
Events this month include the closing date for Senior Rescue In-
structors' Conference on Friday; the VRA Mid-year Conference at
Inverell next weekend; the RCOs' Conference at Hornsby RSL Club
next Sunday; and the end of the financial year, with subscrip-
tions due (a mere $10), also next Sunday.
Next month sees the Mid North Coast Horse Enduro on the weekend
of 6-7th April, the Forster Triathlon on 20th-21st April, and the
RTA Big Bike Ride, from Albury to Bathurst, from the 20th to the
28th April.
