GLCC News

Bob Allenick has quite the range of boating experience. Let's read a little about our newly appointed Port Captain for Cleveland, Ohio (East, E-10) and wish him a hearty welcome...

     Have you ever been chatting with a fellow boater about the GLCC who is potentially interested in joining? Many of us do so while we’re cruising or strolling the docks. So why should this potential member have to wait until a boat show to get a discount?

Get ready for some “Rootin’-tootin’, gun slingin’, saloon dancin’, wild ropin’, all out western fun” when the “Wild Wild West’’ comes to the Lake Erie Rally June 17–19 on Middle Bass Island (E-18.5)! Do you remember the Alamo? Do you remember Lonz Winery? They will be one in the same this fabulous weekend! Wild West traditions (line dancing, steer roping, gun fighting and more), along with delicious western food and all the fixins’ will delight all your senses!

Spring is just around the corner! Be sure to read the spring issue of Lifeline so you can make your cruising plans for this year’s summer events! Center stage is our annual Rendezvous, to be held in Mackinaw City, Mich.
