Les Cappe is organizing two days and two nights AT CAMP!!

Hi Kawagamites,

What If?

IF......I could organize (with help from some of you) a "weekend at camp" including one or two overnights sleeping at camp......rather than in a hotel, resort or lodge.......how many of you would be interested?

Paul Gellman Is Back at Axis - Saturday night, October 18th

Please note: Toronto area campers...Paul Gellman and his Band continue to make mini "Reunions" possible. This will be my fourth trip from Buffalo to see and listen to Paul, Kawagama's current premier "live" entertainer and musician. The venue, Axis, at 3048 Dundas Street West, has great food and is cozy enough to let everyone feel part of the performance.

Happy Reunion Anniversary Kawagamites

Last night I dreamed we were all together again at Camp

Paul Gellman Band...back at it, again

Paul Gellman

Hello friends!

For those that came to the Axis on March 29, thank you for joining us! It was really fun! Our band certainly enjoyed playing. We’ve been playing together for a while now so we’re comfortable with the material, and able to relax, play and jam together. That makes it even better!
Let’s do it again!

WHO: Paul Gellman Band with Dave McManus, Trevor Fentum, Richard Keelan, Joey Goldstein, and Lucy Carrick

WHAT: A Musical Celebration

WHERE: Axis Gallery and Grill 3048 Dundas St. W. (2 km west of Keele)

New Video to check out...

FYI...I've found and tested a better source for displaying video on the website....so, I edited my own slides over again, this time using Green Day's "Time of your life". Check out the full screen option...works well, I think.
If you would like to add your own videos to the site, email me at admin@campkawagama.com and I'll be happy to tell you how to go about it. I hope you enjoy the revision and that your new year is going well. That's all I've got for now...I'm out.

Ciao,
Jeff Hoffman

Andy (Snitzer)...at camp and later

Camp was something I would cry and beg not to go to every summer. I thought it would be nice to stay in Toronto and be with my school friends instead and I was afraid to leave home I guess. I would cry and carry on every year...beg, plead, throw tantrums...whatever I could think of to manipulate my parents into not sending me to camp. The funny thing about it was that once I got to camp, I loved it.
