Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) May 12, 2005 -- The Gay + Lesbian Rowing Federation
(GLRF) is proud to announce the sponsorship of a 4-day rowing clinic in Tuscany,
Italy. The addition of this clinic, Destinazione Italia, to the GLRF 2005 global
training campaign, HitTheWater!2005, expands global gay and lesbian rowing
clinics to 5 countries: Australia, Italy, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the
United States.
Destinazione Italia provides the opportunity for European
rowers to enjoy the community and camaraderie of a gay and lesbian friendly
rowing clinic in the heart of Tuscany, at the Terralba Rowing Camp. Preferred
pricing is offered to GLRF members.
The purpose of the HitTheWater!2005
campaign is to assist crews and rowers with the intense training regimens
necessary to prepare for the 2006 Montreal World Outgames and the 2006 Chicago
Gay Games. The global campaign seeks to develop sweep and scull training camps
in North America, Europe and Australia. The continued development of gay and
lesbian focused or friendly clinics in the worldwide rowing community
underscores the growing recognition and awareness of gay and lesbian rowers
worldwide.
The Terralba Rowing Camp is located in San Miniato near
Florence. The four-day clinic, offered 22 – 26 Sep 2005, will focus on
individualized sculling instruction at a picture perfect lake basin adjacent to
the Arno River. Italy’s nationally known masters coach, Enzo Ademollo, will
instruct clinic participants. Sig. Ademollo serves on the Italian National
Rowing Council and is the national coordinator of masters rowers in Italy.
Rowers will have twice daily sculling sessions, off the water instruction, and
will eat very well (naturalmente!). The clinic package includes meals and
lodging, and is open to all rowers, gay and straight.
Headquartered in
Los Angeles, GLRF is a web-based global membership organization dedicated to
promoting rowing in the gay and lesbian community and fostering an international
community of gay and lesbian rowers, coaches, coxswains, and judges at all
levels of the sport, including junior, collegiate, veteran/masters, and elite.
The organization provides resources and information to rowers and serves as a
liaison both within the community and with the larger international rowing
world.
