I went to Lundy's Lane School in the late 50's. That would make me an old
guy, I guess. Any one else out there from the Kingston area of that time?
Or how about any brats from Vancouver Wireless Station in the 60's.
After dad retired, our whole family eventually settled in B.C.
Loved the mountains.

Accidently discovered this group...there are a lot of comments on Facebook, "Fort Henry Heights Brats" I posted a lengthy remembrance recently covering from 50 to 55. We also would go into the Moats in Winter for a lark but had a way out on the lake ontario side. I attended school in the fort for two years when the school was overcrowded and they sent the Grade VIIs there.

Hi, My name is John MacLEOD. I lived at FHH from approx 57 to 61. I was 13 to 16 years old at the time. My nickname was “J B”. I was wondering if some of my old friends were still around. Some of their names were; Carl Brooks, Don “Boots” Boutilier, Carol nee Jodion ( pronounced Jodwen), Carole ” Shocky” nee Shokrel, Rick Collins, Jim Burkett, Ken Palmer, Jackie nee St. Denis. Gail nee Severign, Jim Whipple, Denis Moore, Judy nee Cassidy, Doug Cummings.

My dad got posted to BC from Kingston and the only friend from above that I have had contact with was Don Boutilier about 1965. I have heard that he has passed away.

If anyone has any information or contacts for the people above I would sure like to hear about it. My email is ***@shaw.ca. I now live in Victoria BC.

Regards to all

Lived at 35 Paardeburg, 65 to 68. Went to QECVI and LCVI. Remember Dead Mans Bay, the swimming area. My brothers and I played a lot around the old fort. Skinny dipped when the 10009 island cruise boats went by. A lot of good memories.

Paardeburg behind church and Batoche? We called it "party place" LOL. My family was on Normandy and Batoche 65 to 68. Many friends at both QE and LC. Have located B Macdonald and trying to see if others still around. Arrowhead beach had built up a lot and I surmise more so by now. Was unsure if web site still active when I received your email response. Perhaps we met at beach,dance,base etc.since it seems we were both there about the same time and going to high school. I was like most, did not take enough photos back in the day...Jerry.

Born in Kingston. Went to Lundys Lane in the late 60's.
I remember Red Rock behind Batoche
Deadman's Cove, and the sunken uboat :)
the wharf, visitting the Centennial train downtown, Wolfe Island
Best times were at Fort Henry itself. sledding down in winters, getting stuck
in the moot during the summer.
