Munich City Launch sets the stage for GLRF entry to European Continent

The GLRF banner was on display at the World Class Oberschleissheim Rowing Centre for the two days of the EuroGames 2004 Rowing Regatta, 20 – 31 Jul 2004. Some of the more notable observers were the Dutch National Rowing Team and Deutschland’s multiple World Champion single sculler and rowing celebrity, Marcel Hacker.

GLRF hosted an information kiosk at the rowing course, featuring information and brochures, the GLRF Summer50 Henley shirts, and the promotional information on the 2006 Montreal World Outgames Regatta and the 2006 Chicago Gay Games Regatta. GLRF also issued a press release announcing its debut on the European Continent.

At the conclusion of the regatta, rowers were invited to the GLRF Munich City Launch Social, held at the Seitensprung Bistro, in the heart of Munich’s gay and lesbian district. See the summary of the city launch: www_glrf_info_ABOUT_GLRF_MEDIA_2004_City_Launch_Munich_City.pdf Over 45 sun burned, blistered rowers drank beer, at schnitzel and strudel, and enjoyed the warm Munich evening before heading out to the big EuroGames Orange Party Dance.
