Gas - Safe Procedures   •   Turn off the LP gas container gas valve if safe to do so.
                        •   Evacuate the area for 100 metres around the leak (danger area).
                        •   Post a sentry to warn passers-by of the danger.
                        •   Ring 000 from outside the danger area.
                        •   Contact the rally warden on 0429 654 480 UHF or Channel 50 to ensure the Emergency
                            Response Team (ERT) can attend as quickly as possible.
                        •   Ensure no smoking or other means of ignition is allowed within a 100-metre radius.
                        •   Allow the leaked gas to dissipate into the atmosphere before entering the danger area or
                            the RV. Monitor the area to ensure the bottle is not still leaking.
                        •   Get qualified assistance to determine the cause of the leak.
                        •   If cylinder catches alight, (via the pressure valve) spray water onto the top half of the
                            cylinder to keep cool and then gradually turn valve off or let cylinder vent (make sure that
                            in doing this you are not putting yourself in danger).

Volunteers              Once again, whether it be your first rally or one of many, your rally experience would not
                        be possible without the tireless effort of over 250 volunteers. Coordinators, team leaders
                        and organisers have been hard at work with arrangements for many months to ensure an
                        enjoyable rally for all. If you require assistance just look for volunteers in their volunteer rally
                        shirt.
                        A big thank you to all volunteers from rally management.

    Dance Classes
   ROCK & ROLL — GEOFF PHILLIPS
   Geoff has been teaching Rock & Roll at the rallies for several years now, and it’s proved to be a popular event each
   time. Rock & Roll is the most portable dance because wherever you go: a wedding, a ball, a party, there’ll usually be a
   Rock & Roll bracket. This is your chance to be a part of the fun. When you get back home, you’ll be able to teach your
   grandchildren! There’ll be daily lessons, in basic four-step Rock & Roll, starting from absolute scratch. If you’ve never
   danced a step, we’ll send you home dancing. Bring a partner if you can, but it’s not absolutely necessary. Shoes are
   best if they have just a little bit of slip. We’ll also do the Rock & Roll Waltz and whatever else takes our fancy at the
   time.
   Please note – since each of our lessons build on the one before, you will need to do EITHER lesson 1 OR 2, to progress
   to the subsequent lessons, OR already know the basic step.

   LINE DANCING — RAINEY PARSELL
   Rainey has been teaching our line dancing classes for many years now. These classes are also very popular. Most of
   the favourites are taught – Elvira, Boot Scootin’ Boogie, The Wanderer and so on. Start your day with fun and exercise.

   SOCIAL TEA DANCE
   This activity has been held for a few years now, and is popular with watchers as well as dancers. It is intended for
   those who already know how to dance. We’ll do most of the old favourites – Merrilyn, Swing Waltz, Barn Dance,
   Festival Glide, Alpha Waltz, Tangoette and more. There will also be modern brackets – Quickstep, Waltz, Jive, Rock
   and Roll etc.
   See the Daily Schedules starting on page 19 for all class and dance times.
