Our “docks in” date is Saturday, May 2. Club members and their family/friends are needed to help make this event run smoothly. It will be run concurrently with a club cleanup beginning at 9am and concluding sometime after noon.
This is also a reminder to bring all GBRC equipment back to the boathouse at docks in that was brought home by members for the winter. It’s particularly important that James has a functioning Mustang survival suit to wear while supervising crews on the water during early season practices.
Our club relies on volunteers so your participation is encouraged. Refreshments and snacks will be available.
Remember to wear appropriate work clothes and gloves.
Your 2026 Board members are Will Greene, Rob Haag, Mike Huet and Kathryn McGill. Thanks to these members for continuing to coordinate activities. Please support their initiatives.
We’re happy to announce that James Rourke has been hired as the Summer student responsible for boathouse procedures. Please support him when at Little Lake.
Upcoming special events on Little Lake:
Come Try Rowing event - June 12 (9-12pm)
Spring Beach Sprints Fun event - June 20 (All day)
More info will be shared as we approach June.
Race schedule for May/June:
Pittsford, U.S. - May 23
Tony Biernacki Memorial, Welland - June 13
Once you are registered with GBRC and fees paid you will receive a Welcome email with information on:
*the GBRC handbook outlining all important topics to prepare you for a fun, safe rowing season.
*an online sign off form you will need to fill in before you have access to the club and Little Lake.
