COVID-19 related decisions: Launch and other Club events postponedT

The Toronto Sailing & Canoe Club is continually monitoring the rapidly evolving coronavirus (COVID-19) health situation in our province and beyond. These are exceptionally difficult and unusual circumstances and the health and safety of all members remain, as always, of utmost importance to us.

As the scope and longer-term reality of COVID-19 continues to evolve, our immediate concern for the health of our members is joined by a concern for the financial viability of our club and the people who are employed by our club.

We aim to update our members regularly as new information presents itself.

Issues we are addressing currently are:

• Launch - The Board has decided to postpone launch until June 6th, 2020. Depending on the situation this may change.
• Moorings - We are discontinuing with mooring refurbishment until it is safe to do so. This may leave some moorings unavailable.
• Icebreaker - This event will be cancelled.
• Sailing School - A decision whether to cancel/postpone each specific course session will be made 4 weeks before that session's start date.
• Race Team - Our race team which normally begins training in April will be postponed until later this Summer
• Financial Impact - We will be assessing the financial impact of all of our decisions.
• Attendance at the Club - The club is closed and all activities have been cancelled. During the current phase of the city's required social distancing, this includes any work being done on boats pre-launch. Please note that we will not be sterilizing the club. We ask that all members adhere to the recommendations from the various sporting organizations: 
• https://ontariosailing.ca/
• https://dragonboat.ca/
• https://www.paddlecanada.com/
• New Organization - Proposed changes to our organization and the hiring of new positions have been deferred.
• Club Upgrades - Items approved at the General Meeting have been deferred until we understand the financial impact of the situation.

We hope that you and your friends and family avoid the tragedy that is unfolding around us. We also hope that we can have at least some summer on the water.

Regards
