Great Lakes Cruising Club (GLCC) Worth it?

Is anyone here a GLCC member? I see their table every year at Strictly Sail and wonder if their cruising guides are worth it.

If you cruise, particularily further afield, they are absolutely worth it.

Thanks Gord. Local knowledge is always nice. We've had to 'reinvent the wheel' for a number of destinations.

We used their guides last summer in the north channel and they were very helpful.
