Text messages are being sent to people who were at the venues at these times and checked in with a QR code.
Both sites had COVID-19 business safety plans in place which has helped to minimise the risk to customers and staff.
MLHD is also asking anyone in Henty or Coolac, or who has been in these towns recently, to get tested if they have even the mildest of symptoms, and isolate until they receive a negative result.
Tests are being done between 10am and 2pm on Monday at the Henty hospital.
