    Your fellow Brats want to share your joys - birthdays, anniversaries, and more.  PLEASE forward your significant annual dates to Gina Tanner, so that we can either wish you the best on your special day, or tease you mercilessly - whichever is appropriate for you.  Then, when you have a new joy to celebrate (a grandchild or perhaps your Parole Hearing), let us know about that, too.

    Consider us your clearing house for Brat-related milestones.  Please send your news to: pubcom@aramco-brats.com

Please indicate if you are interested in an organized tennis tournament by emailing Hirath Ghori by Wednesday, November 21st!!!

    • The tournament is being scheduled for Saturday, May 25, 2013 with a shotgun start at 12:30PM.
    Please indicate your intention to participate in the golf tournament by emailing Hirath Ghori by Friday, August 3rd!

    Did you know that, in addition to the award-winning publicationSaudi Aramco World, ASC's Publications Group produces a feature magazine for retirees?

    Al-Ayyam Al-Jamila ("Pleasant Days') is published semi-annually and contains feature articles on reunions, retirees and their families, and other information about the company. This special-interest magazine helps old friends "stay connected" -- both from years past and the present.

    A high percentage of retirees in North America currently receive the magazine, yet the company would like to increase the circulation worldwide. The magazine is not only for retirees, but also for family members and friends of Saudi Aramco.

    Join the campaign to generate interest! Visit the ASC Web site to learn more about Al-Ayyam Al-Jamilah. To subscribe, email EK.Catchings@AramcoServices.com in ASC Public Affairs.

     The board would like to hear your feedback on the directory CDs published last term.  This is the first time we have published and distributed the directory in PDF format which is significantly less expensive than a paper copy.  At the same time, we have also gone to an online directory which is as up-to-date as each individual brat keeps it and is available 24/7.  To put it another way, as soon as we dump the database and burn to CD, it's out of date!

    You can guess how we feel about the directory CDs, but we'd like to here from you guys!  Tell us what you think by voting in the poll or leaving your thoughts in the feedback forum.
