2025-10-21 20:30:00Z Oct. 21, 2025 Rotaract Painting The Cannon @ UofG 8:30pm Oct. 21, 2025
8:30 p.m. - 9:00 p.m.
University of Guelph
Each year, the Rotaract Club of Guelph is one of the student groups that paints the cannon on campus. The Rotaractors use the opportunity to promote Rotary's global goal of Eradicating Polio. The painting is scheduled for Tuesday evening, October 21st at around 8:30pm. Rotarians are welcome to come along and enjoy the fun!
 
The cannon is a British naval gun, rumoured to have been used in the War of 1812. Its name is “Old Jeremiah” and it is located in Branion Plaza, in front of Raithby House and across from the UC. It is a long-standing Guelph tradition for students to paint the cannon with messages in order to promote events and organizations.

2026-02-23 00:00:00Z Feb. 22, 2026 Rotary Beginnings-Feb 23rd Feb. 23, 2026
ROTARY INTERNATIONAL BEGAN ON FEBRUARY 23, 1905
After setting up his law practice in Chicago, Paul P. Harris gathered several business associates to discuss the idea of forming an organization for local professionals. On 23 February 1905 Harris,  Gustavus Loehr, Silvester Schiele, and Hiram Shorey gathered at Loehr’s office in Room 711 of the Unity Building in downtown Chicago. This was the first Rotary club meeting.  Our 1.2 million-member organization started with the vision of one man—Paul P. Harris. The Chicago attorney formed one of the world’s first service organizations, the Rotary Club of Chicago, on 23 February 1905 as a place where professionals with diverse backgrounds could exchange ideas and form meaningful, lifelong friendships.  Rotary’s name came from the group’s early practice of rotating meetings among the offices of each member. 
 
THE ROTARY CLUB OF GUELPH BEGAN ON FEBRUARY 23, 1920
 
On February 23, 1920, 25 Guelph businessmen held an organizational meeting to form a new Rotary Club. Under the leadership of Alex Stewart (a Guelph pharmacist), the club was officially chartered on April 9, 1920 at the Royal Canadian Cafe. Over the years, the RCOG met at different locations for the weekly meetings. Moves from one location to another were usually prompted by changes in membership numbers. 
 
The RCOG went on to sponsor the following nine clubs:
  • Kitchener, 1922
  • Orangeville, 1936
  • Acton, 1947
  • Drayton, 1950
  • Georgetown, 1955
  • Fergus, 1966
  • Guelph Wellington, 1986 
  • Guelph Trillium, 1995 
  • Guelph South, 2003

2026-04-09 00:00:00Z Apr. 08, 2026 RCOG Charter Birthday Apr. 09, 2026
 
THE ROTARY CLUB OF GUELPH WAS OFFICIALLY CHARTERED ON APRIL 9, 1920
 
Under the leadership of Alex Stewart (a Guelph pharmacist), the Rotary Club of Guelph was officially chartered on April 9, 1920 at the Royal Canadian Cafe.
 
Planning for this charter event had begun a few months earlier when 25 local businessmen in Guelph met on February 23 to consider starting a local Rotary Club. The February 23rd date  coincided with the birthday of Rotary International that had begun in Chicago 15 years earlier.
 
Over the years, the RCOG met at different locations for the weekly meetings. Moves from one location to another were usually prompted by changes in membership numbers. 
 
The RCOG went on to sponsor the following nine clubs:
  • Kitchener, 1922
  • Orangeville, 1936
