ABOUT
US
OUR
HISTORY
The
SPEARHEAD affiliation was established in 1970,
making
it the most enduring gay organization
of its kind
in
Canada. We were incorporated in 1993.
The
Club was formed for the purpose of identifying and
bringing
together, individuals of similar interests - an
affiliation,
brotherhood or fraternity of men who wish
to
recognize with pride, the value and privilege of
belonging
to an organization of 'Brothers under the skin'.
The
red SPEARHEAD symbol back patch, shoulder flash,
and/or
pin is recognized and respected around the world.
The
affiliation's affairs are governed by a Board
of
Directors, elected annually. We hold quarterly
open
general meetings where members hear details
of
future plans and can voice their views.
Social
events and activities are held throughout
the
year - some are private, others are open.
A
newsletter "Phalia" and the website, lets members
know
about current happenings within the affiliation
and
with other clubs both locally and internationally.
SPEARHEAD'S
contribution to the surrounding
community,
are noteworthy. Since our founding in 1970,
the
Club has collected thousands of dollars worth of toys
and
distributed them to underprivileged children with
our
'Toys-For-Tots' campaign. In addition, we have raised
thousands
of dollars for local AIDS charities.
Our
Members range in age from 20's to 80's and
represent
a variety of professions. The close fellowship
exhibited
by SPEARHEAD Members is truly unique.
It
undoubtedly comes from years of practice, trial and
error.
We are Toronto's original, oldest and largest
demin/leather
organization and we are Proud of it!
