Death of Lake of Death Relay (in Name Only)


“You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time.”
Abraham Lincoln

We love the name of the Lake of Death Relay and think the logo and look of the materials is fantastic. It’s a very clever name and works perfectly with the campy feel for the event.

Well, isn’t it ironic that the name of our relay has displeased some? The residents of Hagg Lake aren’t thrilled with their lake being associated with that name. And given last summer’s drownings at the lake, we’re not enthused about that association either.

So we are considering new names and would love to hear your ideas. Here are few we’ve tossed around, to get you thinking.

  • Lake of Doom
  • Lake of Dearth
  • Lake of Dirt
  • Lake of Breath (as in outta)

Please comment here with your suggestions. If we choose your idea, we’ll give you FREE entry into the relay!

 

Disclaimer: If we use your idea, you get a free entry into the 2015 race and that’s it. But that’s actually a lot; have you see all that’s included in the race? You can’t sue us for using the name. We’ll definitely give you credit on our blog and Facebook and Twitter.
