Rotary Centennial Plaque
In 2005, the centennial of Rotary International, seven Ottawa Rotary clubs in partnership with the City of Ottawa, began a renovation of this playground in Brewer Park.
The task, in celebration of one hundred years of Rotary's service to international and local communities, was to provide Ottawa and the surrounding region with a playground for Children of all Abilities; one that both able-bodied children and children with disabilities could share. During the four-year renovations, old play structures were replaced with new and accessible structures and others were added.
In addition to the Rotary Clubs, the City of Ottawa, many individuals, charitable foundations and local businesses contributed to the project and helped to make it a success. The playground now called the Rotary Centennial Playground evolved from two accessible play structures provided by the Community Foundation of Ottawa in 1989.
Members of the Rotary Club of Ottawa, Ottawa Bytown, Ottawa Kanata Sunrise, Ottawa South, Nepean-Kanata, South Nepean and West Ottawa, are proud to present the Rotary Centennial Playground to the communities of Ottawa and the National Capital Region
