Welcome to our Club History
Restoration Project


This is the information we have been able to piece together so far regarding GCFF history.  
Thanks to Denis Pierce, Jimmie Marchio, Frank and Karen Rinella, Nita Keehn, Len Valente and probably some I have forgotten for the input.


Most of the information comes from newsletters from each particular year, as that is all we have for most years.  I was able to see club minutes for a few years.

Now it is your turn to make corrections and fill in the blanks!


Please contact Mike Conner with any information you may have!
