A Letter from the Founder & Headmaster
Dear Friends:
“Gratitude is a memory of the heart.” - Edmund Burke
It is from the heart that I want to convey my profound gratitude to so many who, in spirit,
celebrate with us tonight and have contributed so much to make the dream of Robert Land
Academy the working reality it is today.
From our most humble beginnings in transforming a pig farm into a boarding school campus, the
challenge has been compelling. There were many in those early years who thought this a hopeless
task. However, there were also those who laboured long and hard to take those first few precarious
steps. I am very grateful to them.
To the hundreds of staff and faculty over the past 35 years whose courage, caring and leadership
have motivated boys to grasp their huge potential and work hard to develop it; I am very grateful.
To the thousands of boys who have attended the Academy and now occupy the precincts of
medicine, law, the arts, clergy, the military, business, commerce, entertainment and academia
around the globe - to the extent the Robert Land experience touched them - I am grateful for the
honour of having been a part of their life’s path.
To the thousands of parents, grand parents and guardians who have had the commitment to
embrace our philosophy and the loyalty to our boys to see it through; I am very grateful.
To the many Governors who have served the Board so faithfully over the years; I am eternally
grateful.
To the donors, corporate sponsors, volunteers and staff who have contributed to the success of
tonight's gala as well as to those in the past; I am very grateful.
To those in attendance tonight, I hope that you have an enjoyable evening. My gratitude goes to
you for being a part of the Academy's 35th anniversary year.
With LOYALTY, LABOUR, COURAGE, COMMITMENT and HONOUR, I remain,
Respectfully yours,
G.S. Bowman, Lieutenant Colonel
Founder & Headmaster

1. Doors will open at 5:00 p.m. May 3, 2014 in order to give you an opportunity to view the
various items prior to bidding.
2. Use only the paddle number assigned to you to bid. Your number is your identification.

payment for all items is due. Payment may be made with cash, cheque, Debit Card, Visa,
Mastercard or American Express. Cheques should be made payable to "Robert Land Academy
Scarlet Parade". Payment in full the evening of May 3rd is mandatory. Any bidder not
making arrangements for payment in full at the auction's check-out area by 11:00 p.m. the
night of the auction may forfeit their right to purchase the item, at the discretion of the auction
committee.
4. Items may be picked up at the claim areas by exhibiting a paid receipt. Where an item has not
been displayed, the purchaser will receive a certificate for the promised gift. Items may be
removed only by exhibiting a paid receipt at the door at the time of departure.
5. All sales are final. There will be no exchanges or refund of items by the donors or by Robert
Land Academy except where specified, unless the donor is unable to fulfill his obligation as
described in the catalogue. Please do not ask the donors for exchanges, substitutions or
refund.
6. Unless otherwise specified, all auction items and services must be used within one year from
the date of the auction. Dates and times are to be arranged at the mutual convenience of, and
by and between, the donor and purchaser. To avoid disappointment please make all vacation
reservations well in advance. Security and cleaning deposits, when required by the donor,
must be paid directly to the donor and are not included in your bid.
7. All auction items must be removed by midnight Saturday, May 3rd at the purchaser's own risk.
Robert Land Academy does not assume responsibility for items left unclaimed by the buyer.
Special arrangements for pick-up or delivery of large items, at purchaser’s expense, must be
made at the time of payment.
8. Robert Land Academy has endeavored to catalogue and describe the items and services
correctly, but everything is sold "as is", "where is". Certain auction items and/or services may
have restrictive use or other qualifications which may affect value, application or use thereof
to bidder. Many items such as the vacation homes and condos are non-transferable.
Purchasers are bound by the precise restrictions specified by the donors. The terms are not
negotiable. Please read carefully the specifications and limitations.
9. Robert Land Academy makes no express or implied warranties or representations of any kind
or nature with respect to the property or services sold, including any estimate of value. In no
event shall it be responsible for the correctness of description, nor deemed to have made any
representation or warranty of description, authenticity, or condition of the property or services
sold; no statement in the catalogue or made at the sale or in the bill of sale or invoice or
elsewhere shall be deemed such a warranty or representation or an assumption of liability. By
his or her purchase, the purchaser waives any claims for liability however founded, where in
contract or tort, against Robert Land Academy, its employees, volunteers, the auctioneer, and
the donor of the property or service, and neither Robert Land Academy, its employees,
volunteers, the auctioneer nor the donor is responsible for any personal injuries or damages to
property that may result form the utilization of property or services sold.
10. Values set forth opposite items being auctioned are donor's estimates and are not warranted by
Robert Land Academy or the auctioneer for tax purposes or for general value.
11. There can be no tax receipts issued for any items purchased.
12. Individuals must be at least 18 years of age to bid in the silent or live auction, or to purchase
raffle tickets.
LIVE AUCTION RULES
1. In order to enter a bid, you must raise your bid paddle high and attract the attention of the
auctioneer. This must be repeated each time you initiate or increase a bid. Each bid legally
obligates the bidder to pay his or her bid price in full if the bid is deemed the high bid at the
final call of the auctioneer. The auction will be fast paced so the bids must be made quickly.
2. You may use the services of the bid spotters to attract the auctioneer's attention. Remember,
however, that notifying a bid spotter of your intention to bid does not constitute a bid until the
auctioneer recognizes that bid. Avoid the disappointment you'll feel if someone else buys the
item on which you thought you were the high bidder. Be aggressive and make sure that the
auctioneer sees you and knows that you are bidding.
3. If the auctioneer determines that an opening bid or any subsequent bid is not commensurate
with the value of the item(s) offered, he may reject the same and withdraw the item(s) from
sale, and if having acknowledged an opening bid, he decides that an advance thereafter is not
of sufficient amount he may reject the advance. The auctioneer retains the right to add or
delete any item. The auctioneer reserves the right to announce conditions of sale at any time.
In the event of any dispute, the auctioneer will have sole and final discretion in these matters.
The high bidder will be acknowledged by the auctioneer.
4. At the final call of the auctioneer, title to the item and/or service will pass to the highest
bidder who, thereupon, assumes full risk and responsibility thereof.
SILENT AUCTION RULES
1. Each item in the silent auction has a bid sheet attached to it, or on a table nearby. Persons
desiring to bid may do so by writing in their paddle number beside a corresponding bid on
the bid sheet.
2. Each possible bid amount is pre-printed on the bid sheet. Bids may not be overwritten preprinted bids, unless authorized by an auction official.
3. An auction official may disqualify the bid of a person blocking a bidder's table prior to the
closing of a booth.
4. Only an auction official may nullify a bid.
5. Under no circumstances may a bid sheet be removed from the tables by anyone other than an
auction official.
6. The silent auction tables will be open for bidding at 5:00 p.m. and will close at various
intervals throughout the evening. Closing times are posted in the auction area. The closing
bid circled by the auction official constitutes the winning bid.
7. In the event that two bidders are in the process of bidding on the same item when the auction
official attempts to circle the winning bid, the official may conduct a mini live auction
between those two bidders. He/she shall determine the winning bidder. In the event of a
dispute, an auction official shall act as the final authority and shall determine the winning
bidder. His/her decision shall be final.

The Life of Robert Land
Robert Land (1736 - 1818) was an adventurous, loyal frontiersman
who served with the 79th Gordon Highlanders of the British Army.
He fought with General Wolfe on the Plains of Abraham and saw
action in the Battles of Louisbourg and Fort Detroit. In 1763,
Robert and his wife Phoebe and their nine children settled in the
outlying village of Cushatunk. Here, the Land family had immediate contact with
the local native peoples and, while hunting, found a wounded aboriginal and
carried him home to be nursed to health. This kindness was to serve him well when
he came to rely heavily on his native friends as a British Agent and spy during the
American Revolution.
Robert Land remained loyal to the Crown when the American Revolution broke out.
He was saved from a fiery death when a native companion warned him of danger
only hours before the rebel militia razed his home with the intent of taking him and
his family hostage. The Land family fled to New York. Robert Land continued in
dangerous missions for the British, leading troops through unmapped, otherwise
hostile native Indian territory to attack rebel strongholds.
At the end of the hostilities, Captain Robert Land crossed the Niagara River. It was
here, after so many hardships, that the Land family settled under the British flag of
Upper Canada and were the first settlers of what is now the City of Hamilton.
Robert Land died in 1818 at the age of 82.
Lieutenant Colonel (Honourary) G. Scott Bowman, the founder and Headmaster of
Robert Land Academy, is a direct descendant of Robert and Phoebe Land.
In its inaugural year (1978) the Academy enrolled 28 young men. Since then,
Robert Land Academy has enrolled more than 4,000 Cadets. Its 168 acre campus
includes a fully equipped gym, residences, classrooms, workshops, playing fields
and more.
Robert Land's life as a frontiersman, soldier, father and magistrate personified the
values of labour, loyalty, courage, commitment and honour. These values are the
central pillars upon which the Academy exists. They have and will continue to be a
part of our great heritage.
