GLOPRA & BWORA are both in the Great Lakes, BWORA up in Michigan while GLOPRA is based out of Eastlake, Ohio (east of Cleveland). Along with the (old) LSCORA/MOPRA organization, the clubs were all part of the GLSCS.

GLOPRA was formed back in 1972 and has held races in Lake Erie since that time. The website for GLOPRA is www.glopra.com ; I understand that very shortly there will be a lot of new information being put up there regarding the July race in Mentor.

Congratulations to each of you who put this diverse group together. Maybe it's the passion for the sport that ramps up the rage that divided everything in the first place. Certainly spending a fortune to race and not be in control of the decisions that govern are understandable grounds for some of what happened. Yet you've collectively come together as a united front. I too hope that John C. will find a way to join in the concerted effort to complete the unity.

Good luck, be safe.
