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!

The boat, representing Victoria, won by 0.3 seconds, and closed a six year gap for Victoria at the winner’s podium.


Overall, Maxi brought home 2 gold medals, 1 silver medals, and 3 bronze medals. Maxi commented that it was “a special moment” wearing the Argonauts colors and hearing the Melbourne Argonauts name being called out as part of a composite crew at the regatta.

The event marked the first time that any rowers from the Melbourne Argonaut Rowing Club had competed in the national competition. Several other club members competed as well. The weekend event was one of several that the club will use in preparing for the 2006 Montreal 1st World Outgames Regatta 30 – 31 Jul 2006.
