Current GRC COVID Rules - Shed is Closed Until Further Notice

Stay well and get as much activity as you can.

Instead, row vicariously through the Olympics. It’s better than working!

They remind us that anyone can catch a crab, finish in a different lane than you started in and, yes, even capsize.

Here is the Rowing Schedule. First races are today at 9:30am. Men’s 1x heats.

 

AGM 29 August at 10am via Zoom - Register Here

This year’s AGM is being held via Zoom, ‘coz, you know, COVID.

So we can confirm attendance and count votes to abide by the constitution all attendees need to register.

To attend you must also be a fully financial member. Renew now: Membership Renewal

The full AGM announcement will be out next week but get ahead of the crowds and register now: Register for the GRC AGM.
