    Hello Sister Oil Wives, Thanks to Brooks for a wonderful convention this October. I want everyone to know about the 2010 Convention to be held at the Edmonton Marriott River Cree from October 21-23. Please contact me (Carolyn) at cjvanee@shaw.ca with any questions. Hope to see you all there.

    Thank you Brooks Oil Wives for a wonderful time at Convention! We all really enjoyed the Trade Show and thought it was a wonderful idea. Maybe this could become a yearly feature. No having to leave the hotel for a shopping experience!

    Is anyone else having problems accessing the forms on the site?

  10. Sharon Schentag Says:

    Sandi,

    Thanks for noting the problem with the forms page. I have had this checked and there was a problem with the links but it seems to be working okay now. If anyone else has any other problems with the site or questions, please let me know and I will follow up asap.

    Hello,

    just checking out the website. It is really neat.

    I just wanted to say that the Convention this year was fun and I really enjoyed it and the Salmon dinner. I am still dreaming of that dish. Thank you and I hope everyone had a safe trip home. Having so many sisters (Oil Wife Sisters) is a true blessing. I am honored to be a part of this group. At Conventions I see everyone smiling and enjoying eachothers company, it is so exciting. These past five years I have met a lot of you remarkable ladies and look forward to eventually meeting everyone.

    Lots of luv
    Squirlie Shirley

  21. oilwives club of swan hills Says:

    I still am unable to access the forms page. It asks me for a password and when I type in my password, it just keeps repating itself. Anyone else try and access the forms and having problems. I have followed all prompts. HELP!!!!

  22. Sharon Says:

    Jean,

    I just tried and was able to access everything correctly. I suspect that you are not using the correct password to access the forms page. Please contact me directly or another member directly and confirm that you have the correct assocation password.

  23. Marilyn Hunter Says:

    I had a great time at convention 2010, and look forward to serving on the Board of Directors this year. Thanks to Grande Prairie for the supper in November and look forward to visiting other clubs. My email is mdolphin337@yahoo.com

    I just wanted to say “MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL MY OIL WIFE SISTERS! HAVE A SAFE AND HAPPY HOLIDAY!”

  25. mpaleck Says:

    Can someone tell me how I get a password to access the Forms?? Thanks.

  26. 123flames Says:

    Hi all, The Oil Wives club of Okotoks was wondering how people were getting to convention 2011 in Ft. St. John. Tried to send an email to Medicine hat but it came back to me. We would love, love to know if there are any buses going and if there is room for some loyal oil wives!!

  27. Colette Thordarson Says:

    Hi Corinna got your email and replied. We have looked into flights and cost of a bus. So far we are taking West Jet to Grand Prairie, the bus to and from airport. If any other clubs are interested you can sure contact me for more info.. West Jet is offering a discount IF Fort St. John applies (they have to as hosting club), for a convention code that would give the rest of the clubs flying that route a 10% discount. Email me for more information anyway. colthord@telus.net or call 403 362 3754 or Mary Beecroft at 403 362 5648

  28. Sdfeusi Says:

    Hi everyone, I too would like to know how to get the password to be able to access the forms.
    Thank you

  29. Sharon Schentag Says:

    Sheila,

    Please contact me directly or check with your club president for this information.

    thanks
    Sharon

    I’ve been an oil wife for 17 years and have just recently learned about your association. Looks like you have a fabulous convention and it would be great to have people who understand this crazy way of life!

  31. Karen - Lloydminster Says:

    I’m sure we all praying for sister oil wives in Slave Lake right now and we would all love to help out in some way. May I suggest an offering of a holiday trailer or opening your home to sister oil wives or residents if you are close enough to them. That would be the ultimate show of compassion. For those of us who have more miles of separation… perhaps a donation to the Red Cross or such would be more of a benefit at this time. Then as the chaos dies down and something more long term is needed we could be more organized in our heartfelt efforts.

    Just my opinion but maybe food for thought.

  32. Squirlie Says:

    My thoughts and prayers go out to the people of Slave Lake. I am donating cloths, food and whatever else I can find in my house to give. We have a drop off centre here in Vegreville for those in need at Slave Lake. I would like to help the best way I can.

  33. Colette Says:

    I am trying to contact Lillian, Convention Chairman for Fort St. John, she requested the number of members coming from our club to convention. If anyone could email me her phone number or email addy I’d sure appreciate it!. See what happens when you clean your office! lol lol colthord@telus.net

  34. fosteringfriendship Says:

    Our members would like to help out our sister Oil Wives from Slave Lake……if any of the Slave Lake Executive could contact me by email at teejay3@telusplanet.net I would appreciate it.
    Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

    Hello all sister Oil Wives, just a quick update to see that the web site is actually up and being used. I was at the 54th Annual Board of Directors Dinner-Convention in 2010 and had the most wonderful time with all the new ladies i met and some i had met before (fostering friendship) and just wanted to say how much i have missed being a part of all of it, but my health comes first at this time…so until then i am not a “member” but am in heart. I will be back, so until then A Smile, A Handclasp, A Word of Welcome, Are the Links in Our Chain of Friendship, This we Believe….!!!!xoxo
