Viral Infection Update


On Friday 21 November the Club was alerted to illness possibly emanating out of a Wantirna Secondary College function at our venue the previous Wednesday evening, The City of Greater Dandenong health officers immediately attended. Potential causes were identified and action taken to rectify.

Sunday afternoon the Club received reports of illness from Friday night’s function and indeed further reports from Wantirna Secondary College. The Club in consultation and full co-operation with the Department of Health and the City of Greater Dandenong health officers has executed a Department guideline sterilisation and the Council Officers worked diligently and thoroughly to identify the source of this viral infection. It is important to note that the virus affected both diners and non diners.

We are awaiting further test results and until we can reasonably understand the origins of the virus our Grandstand remains closed.

Our weekly Thursday meeting will be run as usual with patrons invited in to the adjacent Greyhounds Entertainment restaurant, bars and tote.

Thank you for your understanding.

Greg Miller, CEO on 9546 9511.
