WHO IS COMING TO PRIMETIME IN THE CITY?
I SURE AM!

How did I get my name? This is a much asked question in my life. First off. "the legend". Could I ask for a better name? I think not. Now there are many stories out there about my name and where it came from.

The first and most common is that I am the legend of the blob. Yes I have blobbed a watermelon, but that in it's self is not that legendary. Anyone can blob a watermelon. Even minnow!!! Actually I once blobbed a watermelon and then ate it on the gaurding board with minnow.

The second is that I came from deep in the woods where I lived for my entire life. I lived of the resources found in the forest and had fox for a friend. His name was kyle and we were unseperable. In a tragic turn of events kyle found a lady fox and left me all by myself. (ladies are trouble) Now kyle returned to me with a problem. One of his pups had been captured. Being a loyal friend I went to help. That is were I met the lovely people here at Iawah. Some how I had lived in between water skiing and highropes my whole life and did not know camp exsisted. That shows how much I moved around. I became a legend. "the legend" actually. I can't lie that last story is completely untrue and nobody actually thinks that's how I got my name.

And now the third and true story. In 2002 I was a first year staff member with the curse of having no camp name. Now I made a good friend named Kona. He, at the time was the head counsellor. Now Kona and Duffor where having a very important conversation about the new staff. When asked about a certain new staff member Kona answered with, "he's gonna be a legend around here." And that my friends is how I got my name.

Now you know. Have a nice day. Peace.

"the legend"

Well my dear friends, here is the second installment of "get blogged by the legend". I don't think that campers know that this most glorious of blogs exists yet. But there are a few staff members that have already made a request for me to write about the history of camp. So without further ado. Here we go.

Back in 1956 a man named Charlie Leech founded this place. There wasn't much here but it was Camp Iawah non the less. Iawah, stands for In All Ways Acknowledge Him. Now as far as what has happened between now and then I am not to sure. I mean there have been different directors new buildings and many a good game of brog played in the last 5o years. We now have a blob. That's different then in 56. Really I don't know all that much about Iawah's history except that it happened and Iawah, as we know it is here today for all of us to enjoy.

Now, I was asked to share how I survived the Zombie attacks that have happened here over the years. The first couple attacks happened before my lifetime. So I survived them by not experiencing them. Now the most recent of these attacks occurred this past summer. I will put this very simply. If you can't beat 'em, join 'em. I made no attempt to avoid being zombieized. It was made very clear to me that the effects would be temporary therefore leaving me in my legendary state. All in all it was a good experience and I enjoyed it very much.

This has nothing to do with zombies or history. October 20th and November 10th are 2 days that you all need to mark on the calendar. Who likes Primetime? I do I do!!!!! You do you say? Well why wait until next summer? Come to Primetime in the city!!!!!! It will held in Kingston on the 20th and in Ottawa on the 10th. There will be further info to come. Get excited and come on out for some good old Iawah style Primetimein.

Well I think my rant has gone on long enough for on day. I will sign off by saying thank you to my family. I couldn't have done this without you......... Sorry I was dreaming about winning an Oscar. Anyways. Keep the comments comin and I will keep the blog rolling. Peace.

the legend

Hey there everyone. Legend here and this is "get blogged by the legend"!!!!!!!!! Pretty cool eh? So this is how it works. I will write in this thing at least twice a month. Hopefully more. You will be able to comment on what I wrote and if you ask nicely, I might even write about it. Now as you may already know my head works in weird ways so what ends up here might be a little goofy. Let me know what you think, ask me questions, tell me a story. I will tell you guys some cool stuff and more then likely some stuff that will make you laugh. Hey, you might even cry. I am really excited to see how this works and hope you folks are too. Well I guess that's all from me for now. Peace
