Simon Auty, execu-tive officer of Triathlon Victoria, said Robertson

was looking forward to mixing with some of the youngsters he met with on an earlier promotional visit to Yarrawonga Mulwala.“He hopes to see all the kids down on the foreshore for the fun run at 9am and the kid’s events starting from 10.30am,” Mr Auty said. “He is considering running in the fun run if enough people join him.”Robinson joins other elite pro athletes Jamie Huggett, Luke Whitmore, Wendy McAlpine, Adam Beckworth and Chris Wigell for the festival weekend which offers an opportunity for locals to compete on the same program and sometimes in the same events as Australian and World Champions.The weekend has been specifically designed by

Triathlon Victoria to include events for athletes of all levels and ages from the local community including a 5km

Dash for Cash fun run, the Victorian Olympic Distance Championship triathlon, and the Australian Aquathlon

Championship plus special events for kids. Noel Wright from Yarrawonga Mulwala Tourism (YMT) said all that was needed now was for the community to embrace the festival, by entering as an individual or team in one of the events, going along to cheer on the competitors or helping out the organisers behind the scenes.A market organised by YMT will be held on the foreshore on Saturday, October 20 from 7am – 5pm and Sunday, October 21 from 7am – 1pm.It will feature local and visiting businesses and organisations offering everything from fruit, chocolate, honey almonds, dairy products, sunglasses, coffee, wine and beer to information and advise on fitness, bikes, pedal cars, hydration and other local sporting events and Defence Force Recruiting will be on hand to provide career information. There will also be jumping castles, clowns and refreshments for all the family.For more information on the Multi Sport Festival and how to get involved visit www.yarrawongamulwala.com.au.

Run, ride and swim with the championsPeter Robertson, Triple World Olympic Distance Triathlon Champion, has confirmed he will be in attendance on both Saturday and Sunday at the Yarrawonga Mulwala Multi Sport Festival on October 20 and 21.

YARRAWONGA CHRONICLE/COROWA FREE PRESS - OCT/NOV 2012 - ISSUE 35

The Yarrawonga Mulwala Amateur Canoe Club is pushing to have a Life Saving Club here in Yarrawonga on Lake Mulwala and the Murray River.This issue was raised during the organisation for the upcoming Murray QUAD which involves a swim on Lake Mulwala. Tim Roadley from the Canoe Club said as the club had no experience with hosting a swimming race and could not find any other local group to help they approached the Edithvale Surf Living Club to help.“The requirement to run such an event involved equipment and expertise from the state officer of Life Saving Victoria.

This made us look into the possibility of setting up a Life Saving Club here in Yarrawonga and also in Cobram,” he said. “At the same time Moira Shire and the YMCA were also looking into whether there were any interested people in the community in regards to a life saving club. The Canoe Club attend a Life Saving Victoria information session Moira Shire had organised and since then we have had talks with the Anglesea Surf Life Saving Club about our paddlers joining their club and becoming members of their kayak team so they can compete in surf competitions. We have also organised an opportunity for students

15 -18 years old to attend a Bronze Medallion course run by the Anglesea Surf Life Saving Club on December 16-21. Anglesea is one of the largest Surf Life Saving clubs in the state and has up to 120 people doing this December course; they have also offered us a scholarship program to help reduce the cost of the course.”Mr Roadley said with the help of the community, Moira Shire and Anglesea Life Saving Club they hope one day to have a club in Yarrawonga. “In the mean time we plan to have a sister relationship with Anglesea where young people can be members of Anglesea and benefit from

being member of Life Saving Victoria, whether that be sport, education, training and of course saving lives on our waters,” he said.For Yarrawonga to have its own Life Saving Club Mr Roadley said community support is vital as to start a club 20 members are required with a minimum of a bronze medallion. “This is just the start of the training that Life Saving Victoria offers, members can go onto an IRB course, first aid, instructors, gold medallion and life guards,” he said.For more information on the Canoe Club or joining a Lifesaving Club contact Tim Roadley on 0417373376.
