Way too close to the weekend of Hackrifice, and that weekend interferes with my college schedule. Can't make it for the life of me. :cry:

And I hear it's in Brantford as well, so transporting myself there is near impossible. :cry: :cry: :cry:

So... I'll be there.

But I'm pretty cheesed that the Board Meeting is the on 13th. :evil: It's this big crazy longboarder/skateboarder event where everyone dresses in suits and ties and takes over the streets of downtown Toronto! We ride all over the place, stopping traffic and not giving a fuck. And then there's a wicked after-party.

I wish I could do both... But Wakahakee comes first. Last year was one of the best weekends ever, it's gonna be even amazinger this time. That's right, amazinger. Thanks for actually listening to my nagging and FINALLY posting this, Tom. :P

I'm going to spend some time next week sorting through my photos from last year's. I took far too many and so I just put it off, but I'll post some here to entice the fence-sitters.

Details shmetails, it's camping + shred, you get the picture. Everyone just plan to attend! And bring an instrument!

Waylon, what does it being in Brantford have to do with anything? That's like 30 minutes from the old location. :roll:

And the close timing to Hackrifice also doesn't really matter because that tourny is half a continent away.

That said, some of the Toronto people will be attending that too.

I'm in NYC Tom, and I don't own my own car nor do I have a driver's license (yet).

It would be completely different if I were in Canada and was a Canadian citizen, eh? :wink:

You're right Waylon, you should switch over. :P

But I understand where you're coming from, both tournies are far and it'll be really expensive either way.

Who travels 10+ hours to go camping? Come on Tom, cut the guy some slack.

I think if you drag a stranger off of the street and tag "Waylon Lew" on his chest, it would be just like I was there in person. :lol:

Much love, Tom. I will be there in spirit, and will roast a marshmallow over my stovetop that weekend in celebration of the event.

I'm going to try my best to make it this year

It depends on school and whether I can get transportation between Waterloo and Brantford though..

I am willing pick ANYONE up from Hamilton to Brantford if it is easier for public transportation. However, I will be in University so if a pickup time mixes up with class, well, froth.

Oh, and for the record, that includes a phone conversation confirmed attendance of Jorden Moir! Yeah! You can see him hit butterflies with your very own eyes!

I also think that there might be a slight possibility that Mr.Suderman himself will come, and bring his quantums for good measure.

How many are planning on Attending? This Saturday dear Mr.Suderman and I will be booking at least one campsite, which can hold (not 100%) 8 people. If Tom, Johnny, Jorden, Jon, Jay, Camille, Waylon's Hobo replacement, Pat all come, then we're good for that. Who else is coming?

Also, we realize that bringing tents mmaaayy be a problem for those taking small cars or public transportation. For those who can bring one, please do, and if you are in desperate need of a tent, I am sure that we can find something to float your boat.

Since this will be a smaller "jam", there are so many possibilties to do cool things, such as all ride in one or two or three cars to go do something non-footbag related. I'm excited.

Cassy, if you can't get a ride I'll find a road that connects Waterloo and Brantford and pick you up, I for one am anxious to see how your footbag has progressed!

Matt Cross? What would a campfire be without lovely songs about male members inside cardboard boxes be? [note, for those who did not attend last year, the "dick in a box song" was the highlight of nearly my entire weekend.]

Well one of the perks of the new location is that it has a bounty of things available within it's own grounds, including swimming and stuff.




IMPORTANT NOTICE!!!

The date of Camp Wakahakee 2 has been changed to make it alot more attendable and to give everyone (including the organizers) enough time to get ready.

The new date will either be the last weekend in Sept, being Sept 26-28 or the first one in October, Oct 3-5.

Hmm, in retrospect I sorta like the sounds of the latter as that straddles my BIRTDHAYYYY!! But ew, I hate the age I'm turning, it's the first adulty sounding one I think. 26 :?



Whee!! Footbag! :D

I'll see with the montrealers if some people want to make it.

The new dates make it possible for me, let's see if other montrealers want to.
