Our Community

15 Member Clubs, One Council

Each of our 15 member clubs sends representatives to council meetings, ensuring every voice is heard and every club benefits from shared resources, expertise, and fellowship.

Club Representatives

Each member club designates one or more representatives to attend quarterly council meetings. These dedicated volunteers serve as the vital connection between their local club and the broader GR North community.
