Anyone Remember ANYTHING From North Bay, Write It Under This Thread!
Q: I'm sure most of you have read my recollections of the teen town in
North Bay, the swimming pool...my quiet place to think with friends in
"the gully". I remember meeting my first friend on our first posting
there, on the rocket that stood on the playground (not the one near the
base chapels). I remember Paul Davoud School and the hill where we
sled. I remember Winter Festival. I remember Airport Road. I remember
Mr. MacKay, Mr. Parker, Shirley Cleminshaw, Holmer Berthiaume, Debbie
Harris, Geri-lyn Heaslip, Scott Graham, Guy Winchester, the Self family,
Charlie....the Winns...anyone remember ANYTHING from North Bay, write it
under this thread!
A:Lived in N Bay early 60s but offbase, as parents rented downtown. Started
school at St. Agnes. Only memory of that school is of my older sisters
dragging me kicking and screaming on Day 1 ;-). Later moved and switched to
St. Rita's. Fond childhood memories of the big (or so it seemed) Gateway to
the North sign, swimming at the lake, shadflies by the zillions and
toboganning off the porch roof in a town with the world's biggest
snowdrifts :-) No recollections of the base itself.
