Comments: Terry and Ron, did you take pictures! Check out the new cover photo for Shilobrat Reunions.
There are no major Shilo reunions in the works that we are aware of, which makes these one on one and mini-reunions all that more valuable. Untill another major reunion comes along, this is all we will have and is hopefully inspirational for others to do the same…and send us photos!
The Ottawa and Kingston brats have been doing this for years and were always jabbing the B.C. brats (there are so many of us) for not doing the same, and although it took one of them (Faye) to instigate it, the B.C. Mini-Reunion set a new standard, and challenges the Alberta brats to do the same. (Don’t you have that Stampede spirit that likes to do everything bigger and better)
If you have re-united with friends or classmates from Shilo (any time frame) and have photos of it, a new album will be started in the Gallery featuring these rendezvous. Send them to the ShiloBrats Gallery Email listed in What’s New and include a story of who, when, where etc
Comments: On Easter sunday I went to Edmonton and met with Ron Flamand. We had a great visit, all be it to short. We were in Shilo in 64 to 66, along with a great many of you. We spoke about the possibility of a gathering of the Alberta Shilo Brats for next year. Any others around the globe would of course be welcome. Is there any interest out there, or is the reunion team planning one more attempt at a general reunion in Shilo in the near future?
Comments: Heck, Steve, evenn when I was in Shilo, I thought it was the Gradwell's. Did you ever use the horses. I never noticed them being used. From your neighbour, From the Past + In the Present Marlene
Comments: The horses you are talking about belonged to my dad Art Hull .we kept them just beside the pig farm before moving down the road across from the Gradwells
Comments: I remember sleigh rides in the Forest Reserve in the winter, too--at least one was a birthday party, but I don't remember if it was Vicky Davis's birthday or Mark Roberts's. There was a David McCabe who was my classmate in Miss Rankin's Grade 3 class at D5 in 1963-64. I wonder if he belonged to the ranch family. Anyone remember Della Rankin? Maybe my favorite teacher ever--she let us make butter and cheese, and took us on nature walks, and was a wonderful artist.
