DESCRIPTION:Tour de Guelph is an inclusive community cycling event that wel
 comes all ages and abilities to participate. Tour de Guelph’s intent is 
 to build and support community well-being within Guelph-Wellington and fun
 draise to support Guelph General Hospital and local Rotary projects throug
 h the Rotary Clubs of Guelph South and Guelph Trillium. The first Tour de 
 Guelph took place in 2014 and was born from an ambitious idea from then Ro
 tarian-David Parr. In 2014 with the two Rotary clubs\, a few staff members
  from The Foundation of Guelph General Hospital\, and the support of other
 s in the community\, Tour de Guelph became a reality. In its twelve years\
 , the event has raised over $1.4 million for our community and has grown i
 nto one of Guelph-Wellington’s most significant community sporting event
 s. We had a record-breaking year in 2025\, with 850+ riders and $226\,000 
 raised. About 100 volunteers\, filling 150 volunteer positions\, help with
  the event each year\, the majority of whom are Rotarians. Many other indi
 viduals and local business leaders also lend a hand. This allows the major
 ity of the proceeds received from sponsorship and peer-to-peer fundraising
  to go directly to important community initiatives. To learn about the som
 e of the Rotary projects supported over the years\, look at the Tour de Gu
 elph website. In 2026\, our Tour de Guelph Central has moved to the Univer
 sity Centre on the University of Guelph grounds.  The increased space can
  accomodate a greater number of cyclists\, vendors in the Vendor Village a
 nd families and children in an expanded Family Fun Zone. There is a way fo
 r everyone to participate in Tour de Guelph! Register to ride\, lead a tea
 m\, donate\, sponsor\, volunteer\, or simply come out to cheer. We welcome
  everyone in the community and those visiting Guelph to join the fun. To r
