With warm weather and mosquito season upon us, it was great that Mmmmmm Lady Fingers and Camshaft volunteered to set trail. Starting from the Bowness Community Centre, great terrain and the Bow River close by to provide great trail options.
The pack arrive and set up in the NW corner of the parking lot. The call to circle up was given by Camshaft and the group assembled in some sort of shape.

Stool Stuffer had volunteered to be the Religious Advisor for this week. He diligently prepared his program and started off by appointing a choir of Slow Clap and Karate Klit.

Trail Summary
A fine trail of some 6 km’s with a river crossing. For those that chose the get wet, a fine time was had.
A Viewpoint in the Mayland Heights NE Neighbourhood
The Beginning
We were pleased and Camshaft and Mmmmmm Lady Fingers volunteered to set trail on a fine February evening. They chose a location in a obscure neighbourhood of Crossroads NE, adjacent to the Deerfoot Trail and Trans Canada highway.
A neighbourhood with some history, we stated from Gally’s Neighbourhood Pub in a 1950’s strip mall. It had a special vibe to it and happy hour prices for those pre run beverages. The weather was horrible with cold and snow rolling in making highway travel difficult.

Inside, where it was warm and dry, the crowd assembled in anticipation of a fine trail and some urban exploring.

Camshaft pointed in a direction and the pack was released.

Off like a herd of turtles, trying to find marks through the recent blanket of snow. Out of the shopping centre and into the neighbourhood. Marks were spotted and the pack was afoot.

Trail Summary
A trail of 5-7 km was enjoyed by the group. Some were more adventurous than others.
We are thankful that that Camshaft and Mmmmm Lady Fingers stepped forward to set the first trail in November. A transitional time of the season, we have not yet settled into the deep freeze, but we are full on darkness, thanks to the time change away from Daylight Savings Time. We now enjoy sunset at 5:00 pm.
The start location was the Kampus Brewing Company close to the university. Formerly known as Kilkenny Irish Pub, it has reinvented itself as a craft brewery serving some interesting beers. The pack started arriving once they have sorted out parking in this congested location.

There were others that did not show up on the camera roll, including Insane Bolt. There was likely a circle called to order by Insane Bolt, who went through the announcements and introductions. The hares, Camshaft and Mmmmm Lady Fingers were called into the circle to describe the marks
You can imagine what the marks looked like as the pack was released to find the true trail.
The Trail
Off from the parking lot, the pack spread out to find true trail. Off west through Brentwood NW, close to John Laurie Blvd NW with Nose Hill beckoning. Continuing through a combination of streets, sidewalks, alleys and pathways, eventually coming around the Charleswood NW.
Check backs in abundance made the trail tough to find and follow.

Back to the Kampus Brewing Company, the group got set up in a large section at the side of the pub. Plenty of space to find a seat. There were both beer and food special that made everyone happy.

Trail Summary
Looks like something around 8-9 kms for those that chose to find all the treacherous check backs set by Camshaft. A fine tour of the Brentwood and Charleswood neighbourhoods.
Camshaft has a significant birthday and could think of nothing better than to set trail to honour his dwindling days of 69. It has been a good year, but all good things must come to and end.
The phycological trauma of changing your digits to new numbers can be difficult for some. However, it is also a time for celebration! Why not set the trail and host the pack back at your house so that everyone can have fun! Sounds like a good plan.
We are having the wettest July ever here in Calgary. It would be fitting to drive to the run in the brilliant sunshine only to have the clouds roll in and dump rain on our circle. I believe that this was the plan all along, and we were not disappointed.
The pack gathered in the parking lot of the Dalhousie Canadian Tire, close to the pedestrian bridge. A solid turn out with archives and new boots were encouraging to see!
Do you think those dark clouds are heading our way?
The circle assembled as everyone was happy it was not currently raining.

Insane Bolt conducted his Hashmaster duties and called the circle to order. A round of announcements and introductions followed.
On cue, the hares were invited into the circle and the rain started simultaneously.

The hares went through the marks for the epic trail they had planned. The pack was released as the rain intensified. Do I really need to get my raincoat? Good question.
Camshaft pointed out a direction and the pack was released.
The Trail
As the rain intensity increased, the hare was helpful in giving us clues as to where the true trail was. With parking lots and traffic lights, the pack got a bit split up. Nevertheless, marks were found and the trail was followed.

We convoyed the short distance to get ready for the down down’s inside.
The Down Down’s
Mmmm Lady Fingers and Camshaft hosted the down down’s from their nearby address. It was a logistical challenge to get the people and the gear into the cozy basement location. Mission accomplished as most folks shed their wet shoes and socks to go for the barefoot look.

There were many good things happening with food, drink and birthday cake, acknowledging Camshaft who is opening up the book on a new decade.
This will all be eaten soon!
Hardly was the Religious Advisor (RA) for the evening. He prepared his program with the challenge of how many hash shit’s can we get to the birthday boy?
Hardly read to goCamshaft have a seat!
Choir was selected and the festivities commenced.
Choir – can we sing a song to us?And we did!

After a significant effort, Hardly declared the group “on the piss” so we could continue of mirth and celebration of Camshaft’s birthday.

A fine celebration for the birthday boy as well.

Trail Summary
A fine trail of 6 km or so, with a much appreciated minor shortcut to improve our trail enjoyment. Lots of new territory in the wilds of Dalhousie to explore.
With much enthusiasm, Snevil volunteered to set trail for the hash on what is coincidentally Guy Fawkes day. We are pleased that Snevil stepped forward as this date had not been filled as of last week. Perhaps it is the stigma with the date, for those familiar with the Guy Fawkes story. Back in 1605, Guy Fawkes planned to blow up the English parliament building with 36 barrels of gunpowder. He was unsuccessful and was charged with treason. The day is also know as Gunpowder Treason Day. Look it up if you wish to know more about the fun times of 1605.
In spite of the date, Snevil successfully found a pub that was not closed, booked, or hosting trivia. The Trop was selected for the run start in the Marda Loop/Mount Royal part of town. Historically a dive bar know at the Tropicana, it now represents itself as a venue suitable for a group like the Hash!
Snevil coerced Camshaft and Mmmmm Lady Fingers to assist as this was to be a epic trail requiring many marks.
Hashers appeared and filled up the place prior to the run. With the changing of the clocks off daylight savings time, it was now “really dark” at the start of the run.

Eventually, it was time to go outside to greet the chilly, dark evening. PMS rounded us up and Insane Bolt lead the circle.

The hares were called into the circle to describe the marks for tonight’s trail. Of note were “two view points” and some cryptic symbols that we had to figure out.

With all that done, we were able to get back to our mingling and socializing.

Trail Summary
A fine trail somewhere between 7 and 8 kms depending on how many check backs you were sucked into.
Camshaft and Mmmmm Lady Fingers took a break from their hectic vacation and travel schedule to set a hash run for the group. The actual location was worth waiting for, as it was in a neighbourhood that we have not been to much. The community of Wentworth, in the SW is really far west. Think Canada Olympic Park and south. Thankfully, Google knew where to go, and access off the new ring road made this location very accessible!
A park in a new neighbourhood, with a basketball court, was the starting point. Parking was limited but available, once the fire hydrants were figured out. All was well and we attracted a crowd of 25 hashers.
The hashers arrived and a circle began to form.

The pack found the marks and followed the trail. A combination of paved and wilderness trail was revealed to the runners.

PMS can not believe she got the hash shit back…
On the Piss declared and we are done.
The police dropped by to see if there was anyone disturbing us, as they had some calls. Our response is that we were not being disturbed and if we were, we would call them back! They liked are set up and told us to have a nice evening. Could have ended differently!

Trail Summary
The trail was around 6 kms. Great trail in new territory.
This run has been in the planning stages for years. The important consideration was a birthday marking the beginning of a new decade of an important hasher. Mmmm Lady Fingers has crossed of the chasm of aging, leaving the serenity of the 50’s for the turbulence of the 60’s. She has embraced this challenge with multiple birthday celebration events, culminating with Run 2343, the birthday run.
The run was set from their Varsity mansion, enabling the hash to check our the various pathways and parks in the neighbourhood. An epic trail was planned and executed, drawing a large crowd of 34 hashers, including archives and new boots! Word was out that this was an event not to be missed.
The group circled up in the laneway to receive the instructions to follow to complete the trail.
Introductions, announcements, run marks description now done, the pack was released.
The Trail
The pack was released to find the marks. The trail took them through the pathways and alleys within earshot of Crowchild Trail. A clever false trail using the pedestrian bridges by the light rail transit station created confusion for most of the pack. Parks and frolic galore. Eventually, the trail was solved the the smarter hashers and all was good.
On on!
Playtime was appropriately observed in all parks that were on trail. Scaring some small children in the process!

The crimeThe recreation!
A naming happened. Just Amy finally did something that warrants a name. The story goes that Just Amy was wearing an “M” word shirt, celebrating the Bacchus Marathon. Bacchus is a wine company.
Who me?Yes that is the “M” wordSomething back here too!
The literati in the hash came up the “Bacchanal”, a follower of Bacchus. The dictionary supports this with the definition: “an occasion of wild and drunkenrevelry“.
And there is more….
The nocturnal version of the Bacchanalia involved wine-drinking to excess, drunkenness and the free mingling of the sexes and classes; the rites also involved loud music.
Bacchanal will carry this name forward in the hash universe with pride.
There were other offences too numerous to catalogue. Here is a collage of some of the outcomes.
LSOS doesn’t let lack of keys get in the way of beer accessHash Shit from Fish FaceDoes this suit me?Apparently Insane Bolt accepted a Hash Shit from Strap OnSexual offence – Matching shirts“M” word volunteersRashy did something to StoolieInsane likes this hash shit soo much!
Eventually, the formal closing ceremonies were done and it was “on the piss”. Let the after party begin….
Apparently the birthday buzz was still strong and the monumental naming kept an amount of momentum for the group. Not sure of the details, but ask those involved if the party ever really ended….
