PDF file [0.8 Meg.]
This is a set of three stapled-together carbon-copies of memos about the new UGHA Office; all three were on the backs of posters advertizing the weekly meetings of UGHA. We conclude that the poster was created before 1974, March 29, possibly for the January to March term of 1974. Our PDF file begins with the Weekly Meetings poster and is followed by the 3 memos.

1977, Feb.12 Valentine Dance
PDF file [0.2 Meg.]
The August Club was run by Guelph Gay Equality (GGE) from August 1976 to March 1977. Although the poster does not give the year, it is possible to deduce that it must have been 1977: the verso of this poster was used to record handwritten minutes for UGCSA for Sept. 9/77 and Sept. 15/77, so the dance occurred before those dates; also the only year since the founding of UGHA in the Fall of 1973 up to 1977 that had a February 12 fall on a Wednesday was 1977. Hence 1977 is the correct year.

The year is not specified, but it must have been 1977 for the following reasons. The back of the poster was used to record minutes of a meeting dated June 15, 1977. The group did not take the name Guelph Gay Equality until the Fall of 1975. The only year from 1975 to 1977 in which Wednesday fell on the 2nd, 9th, 16th, 23rd and 30th was 1977.

Another poster lacking the year. This poster was located in a folder adjacent to other items dated 1998, 2000, and 2001. The closest years in which April 7 fell on a Wednesday were 1999 and 2004. But the poster gives the GQE extension number as x6702, and the University of Guelph had already moved to 5-digit extension numbers on 2003, January 1. Hence the correct year is 1999 or possibly earlier.

1999, Oct.25-29 Queer Identities Week Poster
PDF file [1.0 Meg.]
Although the poster lacks the year, the following evidence suggests that the year was 1999. The poster lists showings of four films, all released between 1994 and 1996. The only years in which October 25 fell on Monday from 1994 to the present (2012) were 1999, 2004 and 2010. But Ali Scott (GQE Co-ordinator for 2012 Summer) located an announcement of the 2004 program, which differed from the one on this poster. It seems unlikely that in 2010 GQE would have screened only films released from 1994-1996.

1999, Nov.18 Faggie Pub Poster
PDF file [1.7 Meg.]
Although the poster lacks the year, it can be determined from the following evidence. The poster gives the GQE extension number as x6702, and the University of Guelph had already moved to 5-digit extension numbers on 2003, January 1; hence the pub was no later than November 2002. Tinky Winky, one of the Teletubbies was likely portrayed in this poster in response to the February 1999 claim by Jerry Falwell that Tinky Winky was a homosexual role model for children. The only years from 1999 up to the end of 2002 in which November 18 fell on a Thursday was 1999, the year of the Teletubbie controversy. Hence we take 1999 as the year of this event.

Although the poster lacks the year, the following evidence establishes that it was 2000. Miss Convento Rico 2000 had already been crowned. From 2000 to the present (2012), the only years in which March 23 fell a Thursday were 2000 and 2006. But the poster gives the GQE extension number as x6702, and the University of Guelph had already moved to 5-digit extension numbers on 2003, January 1. Hence the correct year is 2000.

2003, June 14 Guelph Pride Poster
PDF file [1.0 Meg.]
The year is not given on the poster. Although the poster is filed in the Rainbow Chorus Archives with the 2003/2004 Season near items in 2004, the event cannot have been held in 2004, since June 14 fell on a Monday in 2004. In addition June 14 fell on a Saturday in 2003. We know from other evidence about Guelph Pride that the only Guelph Pride event from 2003 to 2012 to fall on June 14, was in fact the first picnic, which was in 2003. Hence we conclude that this poster is for an event in 2003.

Although the poster lacked the year, it was possible to verify it using information found at: http://torontoqueers.livejournal.com/ Because the poster was larger than the standard ledger size, it was not possible to scan it as one image. By omitting a bit of the image at the top, and taking three scans (one to include the entire right-hand side, one for the middle, and one for the entire left-hand side) we were able to reproduce all the important information on this poster.
