Boys, Dick Cook, Chris Facey and myself will be getting together shortly to plan the fall dinner. It looks like it will be close to the November 11 celebrations for Remembrance Day. More information to follow.
The new web site (www.bishopfeildarchives.com) is up and running and will have more articles as we move along and more photos. If you have any photos please send them to my email:
pchalker@nl.rogers.com as jpegs. or pchalker17@gmail.com. I am moving house so expect delays in seeing new articles. I will get online again ASAP.
All the best.

Bishop Feild Legacy Fundraiser
Inaugurated a number of years ago to raise much needed funds for the school another Bishop Feild Legacey Fundraiser is set to go tomorrow night, June 12, at The Elk's Club in St. John's, 7:00 PM. I have it on excellent authority that there will be many fantastic items in the Silent Auction. Several of these being Harry Potter books by J.K. Rowling and personally signed by the author.
On hand also with his unique style of humour will be Andy Jones who always makes himself available for these efforts at Bishop Feild.
Tickets are available at the school for $20.00 which includes finger food and 1 drink ticket. See you at The Elk's Club.

Bits and Pieces
The boys are back in town and as I said in a previous Blog they had a great time. If any of you who went have pictures make sure to send them to Bill Rompkey as he is preparing a disc of the photos. Ford Neal called me last night and he and Kathleen had a fabulous time. Dick Cook, Chris Facey and I will be getting together soon to start planning our Fall Feildian Dinner. It maybe, do not hold me to this now, the first Friday in October. We will keep all informed as plans develop. This is something we should have every year to celebrate our old school while we are here.
I asked in an e-mail if anyone has a crest they could send me. David Mercer has one but it means cutting up his hat to get it so if anyone has a crest please let me know. Our Old Feildian in Finland would like to have one of the old school crests.
Last week a teacher at the school found about 30 photographs in an old cupboard dating back to 1899. Remember if you have any Feildian memorabilia that you would like to donate to the archives, please get in touch.
Anyone know Peggy Hoddinott in Gander? that is Bull Anderson's daughter.
Bye for now.

Old Feildian Obituary
On May 11, 2008 Old Feildian, Ernest Shute (Ern), entered into rest at The Palliative Care Unit of The Miller Centre. Left with beautiful memories is his wife of 51 years, Ruth and his daughters Laurie and Renee. Also mourning Ern's passing are his lovely grandchildren and a host of other family and friends. All Feildians send the deepest sympathy to the family.
