Due to the new lockdown measures, we have decided to postpone QErgs. This is unfortunate and obviously not what we would have wanted, but within the new restrictions we cannot run the event as planned, even virtually, on 22nd November. This is not, however, a cancellation. We?re still hoping to run the event as soon as possible when safe and legal to do so. We will keep you updated on this, but we are currently envisioning an event held in Lent term. QErgs is about encouraging new rowers to carry on with the sport that we all love and for everyone to have fun, and we will do our best to plan for a date when these aims can be achieved. We were very excited about QErgs, but this is not the end. We hope to see you all back on the water as soon as possible, and in the meantime, stay safe.

Message-ID: Dear all, In light of the government legislation for the November lockdown passing a few hours ago (including the forced closure of "Outdoor sports centres or amenities, including water sports, stables, shooting and archery venues, golf courses, driving ranges, outdoor gyms, outdoor swimming pools, water parks and aquaparks.?), it?s likely only a matter of time before BR confirm the measures listed below.

I?d like to offer some light at the end of the tunnel, as we are still hoping to run the annual Christmas Head on 5 October. For those that don?t know it, it's a light-hearted race with many crews getting involved with the festive spirit by wearing fancy dress. Entries are invited for all boat classes for clubs based on the Cam (off Cam clubs only be prior agreement). There will be a revised COVID-19 1,800m long course running from Plough Reach to Top Finish (this is the same length as the normal Peter?s Post to Goldie Boat House course, but will make marshalling easier and allow crews to row straight back to their boathouse). We also guarantee refunds if the event is cancelled. A new addition to the event this year is that we aim to have a cable-cam covering the last 100m of the race with footage streamed on Facebook Live. Details are attached and can also be found of here: http://www.cityrc.co.uk/races-we-run/christmas-head/ Please let me know if you have any questions.

Message-ID: Dear fellow rowers, As we are now in the midst of lockdown I wanted to let you know that we are still planning to run the Christmas Head on 5 December (assuming that we come out of lockdown on 2 December.) While we are aware that most people won?t have had the opportunity to do much on the water training, the feedback that we are getting is that people would like to do a fun race (especially if fancy dress is involved). If the event is cancelled or certain classes of boats are not able to row then we will provide refunds on race entries. Given that some college clubs need college approval to row (in addition to BR go ahead), we will also allow people to change entries (eg by swapping boat class) up until 3 November. As you may know, we are limiting entries in order to maintain social distancing and for general safety reasons. In order to be fair to all entrants we will be allocating places in the event based on the date people enter or contact me using the following ranking: Crews that have entered specific categories and paid Crews that have entered and paid but now wish to change category eg an 8+ to a 4+ Crews that have entered online (https://www.droplet.events/christmas-head ) but have not paid Crews that have entered online, have not paid and wish to change category College crews that email me at eventsccrc at gmail.com with an expression of interest setting out the probable crews they will enter. We very much recognise that this is a difficult time for the rowing community and want to put on an event that is safe, fun, fair and rewarding. Please do get in touch if you have any questions.

I realise it?ll be after the end of term and after many of you will probably have left Cambridge, but just an FYI for any people who?ll be staying and wishing to make use of the river (it looks like BR advice will basically revert to what it was before the second lockdown if Cambridge remains in the lowest tier). On weekdays from Monday 7th December to Wednesday 16th December, there will be a navigation restriction of approx. half the width of the river at the Railway Bridge from 08:00 to 18:00 each day. This is to install protective fenders around the new jetty. Outside of these times (i.e. early mornings, evenings, and the weekend of the 12th/13th), the pontoon used for the works will be moored at the P&E, leaving enough room for two eights to pass each other. The whole river may be briefly obstructed whilst the pontoon is moved to and from the Railway Bridge each morning/evening. Hopefully this will minimise disruption to anyone wishing to use the river during this time, whilst allowing the works to be completed before the new year.

Given that we will be in Tier 2 after lockdown, we can now confirm that the event will go ahead. A few people have asked if we could extend the entry deadline so that their club can finalise Covid rules / agree participation with college authorities. We are therefore extending the entry deadline to 10pm on Tuesday 1 December. If would, however, be very helpful if you could let me know in advance if you are likely to use this extension. We are also welcoming entries from non-conventional craft such as 16++. Please contact me if you can?t find a suitable equivalent boat class on the entry form. As a reminder crews can be entered here: https://www.droplet.events/christmas-head Competitor instructions are here: http://www.cityrc.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Christmas-Head-1.pdf We look forward to seeing you!
