Hi all;

In response to John Holmes suggestions, I am in the process of arranging a meeting between the Reunion Committee and the Web Page team to discuss a response. I will get back to you all later.

John - there are a number of Shilo "groups" on Facebook that might be used to advertise any upcoming reunions.

Good idea John. Would also be an incentive for people to consider attending the 2008 reunion if a nominal list were posted of those thinking of attending. Incentive for me would be seeing names of old school friends pop up that I have not seen in 40 years. However I think I will be there anyway.

Great idea John to approach CBCs' Sheila Rogers to do a spot about the upcoming reunion and this great website!

As we gear up for the 2008 reunion, I was thinking of ways to expand the impact of this great web-site. Three thoughts came to mind:
1. Can we post folks whom we knew on this site and see who knows where theses folks are? - i.e. for me it is Byron Brown, Brian Allen, Danny Bodnaurak (SP), Sheila White, Morag McKenzie etc
2. How about using the CBC's Sheila Rogers' show to get a 10 spot to do a true Canadian moment and promote the reunion and the site?
3. Are there other web-site to use to direct folks to the ShiloBrats website?

I will take on # 2 if folks feel it is useful

John

I had an e-mail from Susan Parsons yesterday and I thought some of you might be interested in knowing that her dad, W02 Jack Parsons, passed away Sunday, Oct. 21 of cancer. Some of you may remember him being involved as a hockey coach and ref for the kids teams when they lived in Shilo on Alfriston Cres.

Our sincere condolences to you Susan, Paddy & Peter.

Hi Ken, You and I were in the same class in high school. I'm finally finding some folks on the site that I know. Tom Jenkins and I were best buds for a few years in Shilo and we just re-connected a few months ago through ShiloBrats (and Tom's sister Marilyn, who is a member). I'm sure Tom would like to hear from you. He's in Ottawa too, so a get together "in person" could be in the cards. Tom's e-mail address is: tomandjan@sympatico.ca We were hoping to get together ourselves some time in the near future. maybe I can talk you both into going to the reunion next August.

Cheers, Rob

I was told about this site from a girl that I went to school in Shilo with. Great site. Nice to look at the year book with pictures of my former classmates. Was in Shilo from 1967 till 1972. then got posted to Borden Ontario. Just recently connecting with my buddys from Shilo. Also trying to find TOM JENKINS. Anyone knows where he is let me know.

Edie, What a great personal sense of honour you have presented of the 08 Shilobrats Sixties Reunion! And Trudeau, my favourite thing about him was that he always carried a rose and wasnt afraid to step up in the political arena.
