Comments: Happy Canada Day to all you ShiloBrats. I was only there 1962 to January 1965 but it was the best time. I loved the pics from Mr. Haas grade 8 class.
Comments: Kathie Cole is having some cancer surgery on July 5th. The great guy that he is, Glenn Darling is organizing a conference call to offer prayers for Kathie, on the evening of July 4th. Here's and excerpt of his announcement on shilobrats' facebook page: "If you are a friend of Kathie's,then I am inviting you and your friends to join us on a free conference call that I will set up, specifically to offer prayers for Kathie's well being, on the day before her operation. July 4th.
Prayer is a regular part of my life, and the conference call will go forward whether we have 2 or 22 or 122 people on the line." Kathie's Call" details will be sent to anyone who contacts me. All I ask is that you email your ShiloBrat friends with this invite, or one of your own making, after I send it to you. You are welcome to join the call and just remain silent if you wish.
Please send an email to prayervoice@37dotcom and I will send you the conference call details as soon as I set things up. Kathie's Call will start at 8.00 PM EDT, 5:00 PM PDT, on Wednesday July 4th. You do not even have to believe in the power of prayer to join in this little spiritual solidarity exercise in support of Kathie... the cute little kid who used to live about 100 feet from our house in Shilo, more than half a century ago. Remember brats, its July 4th! contact Glenn now! Faye

Comments: The Dave Findlay memorial golf tournament will be held on August 25th in Petawawa, Ontario. Are there any shilobrats in the area that would like to put a "shilobrats" team together for this best ball tournament. I'm definitely interested!

Comments: Just wanted to share a silly little memory with the 60's Brats:
I was just sitting on the back deck on a gorgeous late June Friday afternoon, and felt that old exciting anticipation that another school year at PEHS was just about about completed (I enjoyed every year at PEHS!)and a whole summer of barefoot and sunburned freedom lie ahead (Otter could relate to this!).
Fishing/camping trips to Waggle Springs (and other "secret" fishing holes along the Assiniboine River)with Jim & Paul Stewart/Peter Parsons (and dogs) were always high on the agenda. In the later summers(65&66), when the hormones started to kick in , it was hitch-hiking to the dance hall at Riding Mtn. Park for the Sat. night dances.
If my foggy memory is correct, the summer of '62 was particularly dry & hot on the southern praires, and many hours were spent in the comfort of the then-new Strange Hall Pool!
In early September, I always feel pangs of guilt about not showing up for class at PEHS-I await that call from Mr. Birch enquiring where the heck am I ??
Here's to happy memories of carefree kids' summers at that special place!
Comments: Happy Father's Day to all Shilobrat dads.
A new Father's Day album has been posted on ShiloBrats Facebook page. If you would like to be included, post your photo on ShiloBrats wall or email to be added.

Comments: Art & Reg Sly did come, along with Glen Rennie and Alan Russell. The timing was great, stories and memories flowed and we had the room to ourselves. Brian Hopkins messaged about a time to come, unfortunately our computer access was very limited, and didn't see it in time, hopefully there is another opportunity. Thank's to all for coming out and for making our brief time memorable...Ken & Doug Jenkins Pictures are in the Gallery
