Adding News Guidelines

Would you like to add a news article? Great! We would love it if you did. All submissions require approval before publication so here are some editorial guidelines:

Latest News is meant for articles that are of interest to the gay rowing community and the GLRF community. Topics of interest might include:

how your club is doing something for gay rowing or being supportive of the gay community,
what you as a GLRF member are doing for the rowing community,
if your club is sending a squad or team to compete at a gay-focused regatta,
if your club or team is featured in the gay media.

What may not get past the editorial desk are stories that are club-centric (gay or straight) such as coming in first at such and such regatta or hosting a fundraiser or enjoying an end of season shrimp on the barbie. We do have an outlet for that and really encourage GLRF members to explore that: create a blog on GLRF for your club!

Want to run an article idea past the editorial first? Sure! Just send a PM to glrfcentral!

GLRF leaps over 900 member mark

18 April 2010 - Los Angeles; The GLRF membership began its final march towards the millennia mark with the 900th membership registration by a Toronto, Canada rower yesterday. New member sign ups have seen a definite surge since the beginning of the year, averaging 12 – 15 new members a month. If the current registration rate continues, GLRF will see its membership expanding into the triple digits around October or November of 2010.

The top three countries by membership are now the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada. The biggest draw in the membership expansion has been the existence of regional groups on Network Now!, the internal social network that serves to connect the GLRF membership.

With the upcoming launch of the GLRF online image gallery, Gotcha! Gallery, members should find even more reasons for logging in and interacting since the gallery features include shoutboxes, comment sections, and FavBoxes for saving favorite images into personal albums.

To better serve the GLRF membership, the All Oars forum has been upgraded with new features including multiple member blogs, a chat board, and more robust highlights of comments and interactions.
