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!

18 June 2015 - Stockholm; The sports director of the 2015 Eurogames, Micke Forslin, notified the rowers registered for the regatta that it was cancelled. The reason for the cancellation was the lack of adequate registrations (only 28 rowers had registered).

The organizers of the regatta offered their sincerest apologies for not being able to host the event. They advised all registrants that they could see a a full refund on their registration fee.

Attempts are currently underway to salvage some kind of rowing event for the rowers who are currently registered.

[Edit: Two alternate events have now been organized for rowers, a recreational row around the islands of Stockholm, and a scratch regatta at Magelungen.]

But isn't the alternative rowing event being coordinated by Rune and Adrian?
