Wow, I head off to Vegas for a few days, and the guestbook is a-poppin! I should have confirmed in my treasure's update that no money goes to Facebook; it is all to service the website costs and to provide contributions to our military families charity. I am an avid Facebook user, as many many shilobrats are, but that doesn't mean we don't come to the site regularly. It is true, d, that the postings to the half dozen facebook groups do not generally make their way to the shilobrats website, but the reverse is also true. That is fair play in my opinion. We want to reach shilobrats wherever we can, and never fail to mention the website when on facebook. just sayin'.

Well, I can't tell you how HAPPY I am to hear these encouraging comments and the desire to keep our web site up and running. But you know, it takes CONTENT to keep a web site interesting and keeping people coming back to see WHAT'S NEW. We, the web team, can't invent it; it takes YOU, the viewer participating too. Bill, I haven't see your nice MUG in sometime now BECAUSE you're not on Face Book. :!cry:

My address is ediemm7@yahoo.ca and I'd love to have an update photo of you to post on THE WAY WE ARE ... and any of the others of you out there. OR how about some old school photos I could put together and make an album. And we're open for suggestions. I HOPE YOU'VE ALL LOOKED AT OUR NEW 'SPECIAL EDITION' which, btw, won't be posted on FB. Can ONLY BE VIEWED ON SHILOBRATS.COM.

Hi all I strongly support Bill G and D over not loosing this web page. While, I do use Facebook I would much rather come here for updates. I hope the committee running this page continue to focus their efforts here. Let the general public post things on Facebook.

Thanks, D & Ken Jenkins regarding the dialogue around ShiloBrat's utilization of Facebook.

My wife and I, being of a certain vintage-just before the Ice Age, have resisted jumping into the use of Facebook, Twitter, etc. as a venue of communication (although a communication-cornerstone of our kids, nieces, nephews & grandkids.)

Why? Perhaps in sympathy with other folks of our age, we strongly value our privacy and security.

I will continue to support and enjoy this website, while hoping the "Guestbook" e-mail feature will not be excluded in the near term as a venue of contact/communication for the ShiloBrats.

That is a good question Doug, as there are a lot of Shilobrats not on Facebook.
There are no funds required to be on or to operate on Facebook. The ShiloBrats fund account is used for keeping the ShiloBrats web site online and now once a year making a $100.00 donation to the Shilo MFRC (Military Family Resource Centre) our designated charity. :!angel:

Hello shilobrats! and thanks Debbie Delmage for your thoughts on smells creating memories, as I know for sure when I think of living outside the gate, I remember the Pig Ranch!!
Our web site is alive and kicking! and we have enough money that I don't have to go on a drive to raise funds! thanks to many shilobrats who, without urging, send their contributions to me (as treasurer), to keep the site going. thanks to you.
This is the biggest military brats website in the world, and you all are part of it! :!clap:
