At the booth, you will be able to sign The Rower's Pledge, our global campaign to promote inclusion and acceptance [beyond tolerance] of gay and lesbian rowers, coxies, coaches, and race/regatta officials in the broader rowing community.  Our collective voices can fundamentally transform rowing from wihtin, and for the better.

Additional GLRF promotion at the Head of the Charles:

This year, GLRF will be featured at the JL Racing tent “vip table” that they get for their big footprint.  They use the table in front of their tent for National Team rower autographs, book signings, and other promotional events.  Joline, the owner of JL Racing, contacted us in September and said she would like to help us with the Rower’s Pledge, our global initiative to promote inclusion and acceptance in the broader rowing community.

If anyone has time to help at the VIP table at the JL Racing tent, we could really use some supporters and ardent believers.  We will have a tablet that people can use to sign the pledge on the spot, and if they do, they will get a special JL Racing rainbow shirt at a discounted price.  

Your assistance would be explaining the potential of the pledge, giving out stickers, and helping people to sign the pledge which they can also do their smartphone or our tablet.  Anyone helping out gets a free Rower's Pledge t-shirt!

Here are the times:

Friday, October 18th: 10 am – 12:30 pm
Saturday, October 19th: 3:30 pm – 5:00 pm
Sunday, October 20th: 1:30 pm – 3:00 pm
