  • History Book II
    Rotary Club of Calgary West (Building a Strong Foundation) Club History From 1992 to 2007 Again we owe Ron Staughton a large Calgary West vote of thanks for organizing the past president’s history reports for 1992 to 2007. And also for making up two of the missing reports. Going forward, each immediate past president will prepare a summary of their year and it will be added to the history on our website. Rotary Club of Calgary West Next 15 years of Service & Achievement 1992 - 2006 Introduction When I’d completed my 25 year history of the Rotary Club of Calgary West in 1992 I joked that after that rather Herculean task the Club wouldn’t get another history from me until another 25 years had elapsed. Two years ago however I was approached by Jim Willson who suggested that I produce a 10 year update but that this time to lighten the load he would undertake to co-opt all the past presidents to write up their own year. Easily swayed and obliging as I am in a good cause I agreed. After I had agreed and launched into the task I realized that one President had absconded in the 1996-1997 year and the immediate past president had moved away without access to our records. Thus I had two presidential years to write up myself! It was after making some progress on those reports that Jim moved the goal posts on me by suggesting we add three more years to bring us up to Rotary International’s Centennial year.
