Can you send this round to captains list please...

Dear All,

I regret to inform you that we have cancelled Robinson Head this afternoon.
After discussion with CUCBC, the RCBC committee and boatmen on the river,
we have decided that it is unsafe to allow crews to race in these
conditions.

Due to the amount of rain overnight, the river has risen excessively and
this has caused the stream to become dangerous. It would be unsafe and
irresponsible to allow crews to race in these conditions and therefore we
have made the decision earlier rather than later to cancel the race.

To those crews who were supposed to race, a further email will be sent in
the next couple of days with information about refunds.

Sorry for the inconvenience,

Ed Osborne

Robinson Head Co-ordinator
