Russ -- There are plans for the 70th this summer but as always, we (the legion) are the last to know. There will be a ceremony in Ship Harbour and also something is planned for St. John's during the same period.. I have heard the road from Ship Harbour to the site has been graded, grounds have been worked on and made presentable and the Consulate General from Halifax is also due to attend. Will be talking to the CO of the Canadian Forces Base here on Friday so should have more next week. Frog

Frog, if you can get Stompin' Tom Connors to perform I'll be there :)

One of the first things I heard on Newf Radio OCT 1970...
Something like>>>

"I tried to take her by her lily white hand
but she said I didn't fit into her plan
'cause you've been working on a coal boat bye
and your notting but a dirty old man'"

Stompin Tom

Hey Russ.... he was hilarious to watch when that foot started swinging...Saw him on the Pig and Whistle Show, lol

I'm interested. Was there 83 and 84.

An Argentia Reunion! Count me in. Was there from 63 to 67. I'll even bring my Newfie wife. she'd love to come home for a visit.

If there is one Frog I'm all over it! I'll be up there next summer on vacation for at least a month or two.
