GLRF hosted its City Launch Social in the heart of Chicago’s gay community, Lakeview, at Hydrate. Twelve rowers braved the mid-30 temps (~3 C) to sip bartender Mike’s Rum shooters and chat up rowing. Attendees included a local rowing crowd dominated by women, as well as rowers from Seattle and Colorado.
