On a wonderful spring day, 14 OC’s got together for a sumptuous, swank, Indian Khana. Sumit Arora planned the event, with all the young bucks half my age.
We talked about a lot of stuff about boarding, how things were different in the 70’s, 80’s, 90’s and in the 21st century.
It is amazing to see what we have in common. A love for our school, each other and to excel in every area of our lives.
I challenged the young generation that the baton of the OCA Canada is being passed on to them. They have to take it to the next level.
We are now approximately 50 OC’s in Toronto. The most outside India and the UK.
I have also challenged the young guns to think outside the box in our reunions.
Let’s do some Canadian things like getting a cottage for the weekend, go diving, jumping from the plane and spelunking. eh….
The heath of the OC fraternity is the best that I have seen it in the last two decades.
Cheers

On behalf of PETER STRINGER:
“Thank you for informing us and congratulations for another OCA Canadian Reunion.
In no doubt, it is a dedication with pride to our dear Alma Mater, and I pray will never diminish as you, Jerry ask the young guns to carry forward.
As these messages of meetings and goodwill reach back to Patina we hope new School leavers will stand foursquare and meet the challenge and never forget the COTTON motto.
I know you were comparing School boarding changes of the 70s, 80s, 90s and the Millenium – just a thought remember some of us are still around from 30s, 40s & 50s –
We love all you guys just as much
Pledge yourselves to keep up the good work with the Spirit of BCS
From OCA(UK) Good luck.
Peter Stringer Lefroy 1943-47”
Great event and do cary on.
