I had made plans early to attend the reunion last year and when it was cancelled, it was too late to cancel my plane ticket so I went anyway to visit family and friends. This year, we are building a new home and moving (only 12 km from where I am now) the weekend of the reuinon so I cannot make it. I would love to be there. My email will change also and I will post the new one right here in the guest book when I know what it will be. Maybe there will be one planned for next year??

I realize there can't be a reunion as planned if the particapation does not increase. I also know it's my fault for not putting more importance on this in the past. If those on the list would be willing to visit each other in Shilo on that weeked anyway I woould be willing to drive out just to see you guys.

Thoughts?

Hey there PEHS!!

I too am saddened by the fact that another reunion is on the verge of being canceled. I was looking forward to seeing how the sixties brats turned out. While some have returned to Shilo over the years, many have not It would have been nice to have them roam my halls and maybe take in a movie or dip in my pool.

At this point it would take a miracle to get the numbers up to where they should be for the committee to continue the reunion. That miracle needs to happen by this Sunday.

PEHS before they tear you down later this year we should make a point of visiting each other. We have looked across at each other for years but never crossed the street to visit. While I still have hope that another reunion could happen in another year you do not, for that I am sorry for you.

I remember all of you, young and eager to go out into the world to be who you were, and later when you returned for reunions, so proud and happy to be with your first friends again�and my friends, Miss Sheehan, Mr. Clarke, Mr. Trail and so many others who, for better or otherwise, made indelible impressions on you. I feel fortunate to have been your school in a time when I wasn�t fenced in, have locked security gates, indignified by graffiti, or feared being set on fire. The stories you tell your kids about school must seem to them like you lived in Wonderland�you did. When I couldn�t be your school anymore, I continued to serve the base in a useful role�and now a time that comes for all of us.
I have to go. If there is one regret, it will be another reunion having to be put aside and my last chance to see any of you again.

On or about this day, sixty-four years ago, the Dads of many 'Sixties Shilobrats" were in Normandy. Here's to them all.

Hi - Haven't seen too many of the 70's crowd on here - particularily '71! This is the first time I have checked in and am saddened by the obituaries I have seen. Would like to add Pam Turk, sister to Leslie (Ferguson) and her hubby Don, and offer my condolences to the family. Have been in touch with a few people on clasdsmates.com. There you will find alot more of the '70's crowd. I don't know if they are tuned into Shilo brats, but I will post it. I hope your reunion comes to fruition and is a success.Sorry that I will not be able to join you.

that the school will be only a memory after this year!

The numbers for the reunion are nowhere near where we would like them to be. This is very disappointing, after all the hard work of the committee members. If this reunion is to happen it is necessary to register and to get your cheques in by June 15th. If we don't have at least 75 paid registrants by then we will have to cancel the reunion. At present we only have 18 paid and another 20 or so who say they are coming. But promises don�t count; we need your cheques. If we reach 75 by June 15th we will continue to take registrations until July 15th.

If we have to cancel, do not fear, you will get your money back.

Bill
