Hashers spotted at Sandy Beach Park!

The Beginning

We were pleased that Shakesbeer volunteered to set trail on short notice. He selected Sandy Beach SW as a starting point. A surprising amount of wilderness and difficult trails are near by, plus the Elbow River!

The group assembled in the recently renovated parking lot and prepared for the circle to be called. Apparently there were some pre run novelties in the form of Jello and something in a small cup.

There was a small selection of hashers that were late to the circle. Apparently an unexpected power failure meant access denied to her car. A rescue mission was initiated. As such, early picture taking of the circle was handled by Dastardly.

With the circle called, the group assembled in something that looked like a circle.

A bit of a tilt, but Camshaft held his ground

A flurry of activity as the late group arrived to join the circle after rescuing a stranded hasher.

After the interruption subsided, the hare was called into the circle to describe the marks for the trail.

With the marks describe, the pack was released to find the trail.

The Trail

From the parking lot, the pack started looking for marks. There was some confusion as the which way was out, as perhaps the end of trail marks were found first.

All was sorted out eventually as the pack disappeared into the dense brush by the Elbow River.

The trail continued through dense brush with many trees across the pathway that required some climbing to get over.

Then the regroup was found and everyone was pleased.

The lawn chairs came out and the group took over a portion of the parking lot.

Such a happy group patiently waiting for the down down’s to begin.

The Down Down’s

The beverages were prepared and the Religious Advisor, Strap On Crampon, prepared here program in here very small notebook.

With all the preliminaries done, it was show time. Strap On donned a ceremonial sarong and led the down down’s from the middle of the circle.

Strap On selected a choir of Dastardly, Lazy Cummer and Rashy Bush. A mostly sitting choir was revved up to sing themselves a song.

First off was the hare, who received a down down for setting a great trail.

The family that hashes together gets a down down together. Apparently Scissor Sister was associated with this group through salad discussions.

With the down down’s complete, we were declared to be “on the piss”

Immediately after Insane Bolt accepted a beer for the next RA, he remembered his schedule and had to immediately capitulate. Scoobie will pick it up for the next run.

Surprisingly Uphill!

The Beginning

We were pleased when Mr. PeeeeeNut volunteered to set trail. He chose an obscure starting point referred to as the Silver Springs Boardwalk. With exacting precision, google maps pointed to a parking lot with limited spaces.

The pack arrived and Dastardly was prepared with Jello shots. The weather was good and a good number of hashers showed up.

The group started to form something like an elongated oval that could pass for a stretchy circle.

Camshaft called the circle to order and went through the announcements and introductions.

The hare was called into the circle to describe the marks.

With the marks described, the pack was released to find the marks for the true trail.

The Trail

Off to the north along the sidewalks, until we found the key marks that directed us into the dirt trails in the ravine.

Through the pathways and parks, eventually the trail arrived at the regroup vehicle.

The hashers enjoyed the refreshments available from the regroup vehicle.

A short walk back to the start and the group prepared for outdoor down down’s.

Very important task – filling up the half yard!

With the beverages prepared, it was time for Twisty to do the Religious Advisor duties.

Twisty started by choosing the choir. King Shit and Shakesbeer were selected and sang themselves a song.

And then it was time for the milestone award. Camshaft has completed 400 run and gets to hold on to a lovely large trophy until the next hasher makes the mark. A half yard of beer is a suitable recognition.

Apparently Hardly and Scoobie did something….

To finish off, it was time to convince someone to be the RA for next week. With his half yard done, Camshaft was receptive and said he would do it.

Down down for the RA’s. this week and next week!

RA’s sorted – down down and on the piss!

With the down down’s complete, the group packed up and headed over to a nearby establishment for further debriefing.

All’s well that ends well.

The Beginning

We were pleased that Pyro stepped up the hare another trail in August. Starting from the parking lot of the 12 Mile Coolee Natural Area, providing great access to the hills and pathways close by.

The evening of the run was cool and smokey. A group of intrepid hashers showed up for the entertainment that Pyro had prepared.

The pack found a place to park and mingled before the circle was called.

Pyro thinking about all the fun the hasher were about to have

Looks like Hardly ran the circle and went through the announcements and introductions. Mr. PeeeeeNut tried to be in all the hasher photo’s, using his best photobombing tactics. AI fixed that problem…..

Hardly invited the hare into the circle to describe the marks for the trail.

With the marks described, the pack was released to find the trail.

The Trail

The trail started off to the east, across Stoney Trail in the the Scenic Acres neighbourhood. Following trail, sidewalks and streets the trail unfolded.

The regroup vehicle was found and there was much rejoicing.

The group got set up for outdoor down down’s. Settling in waiting for things to happen!

Eventually, things were organized enough to have the down down’s.

The Down Down’s

According to last weeks notes, Lazy Cummer was intended to be the Religious Advisor. However, it appears that Hump the Shark ran the program. I am sure that Lazy Cummer will have his chance in the future.

Hump the Shark imagined the crimes, stories and offences that deserved a down down. Starting with the hare, who , once again, set a fine trail for the hash to follow!

A series of infractions and observations were duly rewarded with down down’s.

With the down down’s completed, the pack continued to socialize and perhaps head to the Last Straw Ale House for a debrief.

Fish Creek Shoe Wash

The Beginning

You know you will have an entertaining trail with Abandoned Pussy as the Hare. She knows the intricacies of the pathway network in Fish Creek and knows what hashers like.

Voltier’s Flats at the foot of Elbow Drive was the starting location. In addition they have picnic areas suitable for the down down cerimonies.

The group arrived to find parking and prepare for the run. The weather was good and we had some out of town visitors.

Apparently the scribe and Religious Advisor were late to the circle, so he had to rely on the kindness of others for the photos of the opening circle.

Picture this full of hashers – the down down location dream

Someone went through the introductions and announcements prior to calling the hare into the circle.

AP was called into the circle and explained the marks to the pack. With all explained, the pack was released to find the trail.

The Trail

The pack followed marks up hill to the neighbourhood of Canyon Meadows. Obviously, some uphill elevation gain to enjoy the pathways that await at the top of the hill.

The pack found the regroup vehicle and decided, much to chagrin of the hare, that down down’s would not be at the picnic tables, but rather in the parking lot. Apparently the exertion of moving the cooler was overwhelming for some.

The group sorted out their chairs and beverages, and relaxed in anticipation of the start of the down down’s.

Why are we waiting? Apparently a couple of Harriettes were missing. Choosing to avoid the creek crossing, a long and convoluted route back to the start was required. So both Boob Check and Ure-in-Trouble were DFL, causing a delay in the starting of the down down’s.

With the group assembled, it was time for the down down’s to commence.

Down Down’s

Skewbic Hair was the Religious Advisor for the evening. Arriving late to the circle, he ad to catch up to the pack and rely on other for some tales.

With the beverages prepared by the beer meister, time to get this show on the road.

Firstly, a choir was selected. Sticky Lips and Shakesbeer were delighted to be selected and sang themselves a song.

Then we had to controversial shunning of the down down location that the hare was expecting. A Hat Shit transfer opportunity from King Shit to On In.

Now, time to find an RA for next week. With some level of cajoling, Lazy Cummer is up to the task. As such, it was time to down down the RA and next weeks RA.

Down down for the RA, this week and next!

With all done, the pack was declared “on the piss”. A nice evening to hand around and continue to enjoy the parkin lot ambiance.

The View From The Hill

The Beginning

Blue Balls volunteered to set trail on a warm summer evening. He has a number of routes in the Signal Hill area that test our ability to find trail and experience both uphill and downhill.

Starting from Buffalo Bob’s Pub, a familiar place for the hash, we gathered in the parking lot to prepare for the trail.

The group started to form something that looked like a circle as they chatted and discussed recent events.

Booty Camp ran the circle as both Insane Bolt and Camshaft were out of town.

With the circle formed, we had a special announcement to acknowledge the recent passing of Whale Wanker, (Tom Wheeler) a veteran Calgary Hash House Harrier. He will be missed by the group.

Booty Camp went through the circle formalities and called the hare into the circle to describe the marks.

With the marks described, the pack was released to find true trail.

The Trail

Out of the parking lot, the pack headed North to find a check indicating a change of direction. Madly off in all directions, eventually the trail was found.

Over Sarcee Trail to catch a view of the traffic as we head over toward Signal Hill.

Following our uphill and downhill experience, the end of the trail was in sight. The view of the regroup vehicle was a welcome sight.

With a private room in the back, we headed over to Buffalo Bob’s to do the down down’s inside.

Down Downs

On In was the Religious Advisor for the evening. He prepared his program and the beverages for the cerimony.

On In started the program by appointing a choir of Hardly, Snow Blower and Daisy Duke.

The first down down was for the hare, Blue Balls for setting a great trail. Well marked with great views. A little light on playgrounds, but the uphill and downhill made up for this.

Having way too much fun!

The Beginning

We were pleased that Pyro volunteered to set trail for the group. He is know for setting great trails in challenging terrain. The hills of Tuscany and Scenic Acres provide some great views along with elevation changes.

The run started near the intersection of Tuscany Boulevard and Nose Hill Drive NW, in the Home Depot/Tim Horton’s parking lot.

The start location was busy with shoppers and patrons of the recycling bins that were conveniently located nearby. The group filtered in and found a suitable location to have the circle.

A good turn out of over 30 hashers, including some returnees from last weeks run with Bacchanal doing a great job of recruiting new hashers to the group.

Camshaft went through the announcements and introductions, then the hare was called into the circle to describe the marks.

This is an “on” mark, flagging also used!

Pyro pointed a direction and the pack was released.

The Trail

Leaving the parking lot, the pack fanned out to find the marks for true trail. There were some busy street crossing that needed to be navigated prior to finding the wide open spaces.

Regroup vehicle spotted – waiting patiently

With the trail done, the runners waited patiently as the walkers were out for a long walk. Eventually, all was made right as the regroup beverages were available.

With outdoor down down’s, the group created an encampment to rival some of the best unhoused persons installation.

The group got set up and waited patiently for the down down’s to begin.

The Down Down’s

Bacchanal volunteered to be the Religious Advisor (RA) for the evening. She assembled her program as the beer Meister’s prepared the beverages for down down consumption.

Bacchanal called to pack to order, and selected a choir to help with the singing portion of the ceremony.

Bacchanal selected a choir based on matching shirt types. A group of orange started singing themselves a song.

First off, the hare was acknowledged. Pyro set a fine trail for all to enjoy.

Bacchanal recruits a village of new people!

The Beginning

Bacchanal has been absent from the hash for an extended period. As fait would have it, she is now “back” and eager to set a trail. Teamed up with Lazy Cummer, this dynamic duo were enthusiastic to set trail in the Bridgeland/Renfrew communities in the NE.

The Courtyard Pub was selected as the nominal starting location. Hash friendly and able to host us.

In addition, Bacchanal has been recruiting and we were swarmed with new runners that she coerced to join us. Quite an accomplishment as we had almost 40 people present at the run start.

The actual starting point was a couple of blocks away from the pub. The hares provided explicit details for those that could follow instructions.

The group assembled at a location with a great view of the city, and prepared for the running experience.

Camshaft made an effort to get the group to form something that looked like a circle.

Camshaft ran the circle and went through the announcement and introductions. With some 14 new boots, a lot of new names were revealed! Hope to link the names with the circle photo’s.

The hares were called in to describe the marks they had set for the pack to follow.

The hares described the marks and the use of flagging to mark the trail. The pack was released to find the true trail!

The Beginning

With the first long weekend in May, finding a hare to host the run can be challenging. Many conflicting objectives, including camping, cycling, Stampeders football and travel can lead to a small number of runners. With a holiday Monday, afternoon vs evening time slot is another question.

Thankfully, Booty Camp and Snow Blower stepped up to the challenge and declared they would host an afternoon run with feeding afterwards! We can not thank them enough!

With variable weather, the threat of rain made were an added feature. Nevertheless, hashers appeared and prepared for the run that had been thoughtfully prepared for the group.

Run start location, with BBQ in the back!

In the absence of our normal Hashmasters, a stand in was acclaimed to run the circle and be the religious advisor for the closing ceremonies.

Skewbic Hair ran the circle going through the announcements and introductions.

The hares were called into the circle to describe the marks they had set to mark the trail.

All you need to know is here, including a pink flamingo

The pack was released and to group wandered off to find the marks.

The Trail

The pathways proved fruitful for finding marks. Off we went knowing that the pedestrian bridges over the Trans Canada Highway were likely important.

Some hashers did not appreciate that the regroup was located close to the end of the run. Some were distracted by other beverages at another location near by. All was good and we did not get rained on!

The Down Down’s

Back to the start location, the back yard became a fine place to place your chair and enjoy a suitable beverage in anticipation of the down down’s starting.

Skewbic Hair was volunteered to be the Religious Advisor (RA), and enlisted the support of Karate Klit.

A choir of the bashers was selected, including Pull My Woody, Sticky Lips and XXX Ray. These folks were unable to join us for the circle.

A choir happy to help out with the songs!

First off was a tribute to the hares for setting a fine trail and for hosting the group on this wonderful afternoon.

It was noted that one of our hashers had shoes that were suspiciously new looking. Upon further enquiry, these were indeed new shoes debuting on the May the Fourth run. The RA of that evening, Tighty Whitey, was so wrapped up in his star wars world, they were overlooked. Time to correct that transgression.

Adds a bit of new flavour to the beverage!

After exhausting the material they had to work with, it was time to down the RA and see if we can get a volunteer for next week!

Thanks for coming to our hosted afternoon run!

A fine afternoon of mirth and merriment. We sincerely thank Booty Camp and Snow Blower for hosting the afternoon May Long Weekend Run.

A Bit of Neighbourhood History Spotted

The Beginning

Daisy Duke volunteered to set trail for a great run. His knowledge of the Haysboro/Southwood neighbourhoods would come in handy in devising a challenging yet entertaining trail. The weather was good in early April with snow and warm temperatures at the same time!

Daisy Duke has influence with the Stoneyslope Brewing Company. As such, he was able to get them to open up on a day that they are usually closed. A private venue for the group is a good thing!

The group arrived and settled down prior to the run. Apparently, there was a power failure in this neighbourhood. The good news is that they could still sell us beer and take credit cards using a cell phone as a hot spot! Happy days for all!

People kept arriving and the small space continued to fill up with hashers.

Camshaft and Insane Bolt declared it was time to head outside and circle up in the parking lot.

Camshaft works on getting the circle sorted out

Insane Bolt went through the announcements and introduction. We had a couple of returning archives joining us, Lying Sack of Shit and Krusty.

Finally, the hare was called into the circle to describe the marks he had set for the trail.

With the marks described, the pack was released to find the trail.

The Trail

From the parking lot, we found marks that sent us across Elbow Drive SW to the community of Haysboro. Along the streets and through the alleys enjoying the sloppy wet sunny conditions.

Some historic sights were park of the trail. An old ranch house and a very rare tree were included for our historical appreciation.

Some other features of the trail were the ski truck. Quite a find in this neighbourhood!

The long wet alley lead to the regroup vehicle. A sight to see and the source of great fulfilment.

From the regroup, the pack headed back to the pub to prepare for the down down’s.

Interesting beer and food choices were available. Patience with the single server was the way to go!

The Down Downs

Skewbic Hair was the Religious Advisor (RA) for the evening. He assembled his program and patiently waited for the beverages to appear.

Skewbic Hair selected a choir of Rashy Bush and Hump the Shark. They enjoyed a down down as they sang themselves a suitable song.

Fish Creek Spring Wonderland

The Beginning

At a moment of weakness, Hot Cheeks and Slippy Thong were prepared to embrace the spring weather and set a run from the winds of Bebo Grove in Fish Creek Provincial Park. Sounded like a great plan as it has been sunny and mild for weeks. Park run with outdoor down down’s. A utopian vision.

As spring weather is also variable, a large dump of snow changed the plan. Plan B is the set trail from a warm pub in Woodbine SW, but include some of the Fish Creek trails which were now snow covered. Strapon ice cleats highly recommended.

The pack gathered in a non descript pub in the the SW, in the community of Woodbine (Woodlands). Suitably dodgy in appearance, it seemed well suited to host the hash.

The pack gathered and found suitable seating while the big screen showed some kind of hockey match featuring the loosing local team.

Insane Bolt declared that it was time to head outside in the daylight and circle up.

A reasonable turn out given the somewhat not so nice weather. If you were dressed for winter, the spring run would be “just fine”.

Insane Bolt went through the announcements and introductions. Called in the new person, Just Stephen, into the circle so we could introduce ourselves.

The hares were called into the circle and described the marks we were to follow on the trail.

Out of the parking lot, the pack spread out to find the marks that the hares had prepared for us to find.

Eventually, the trail lead back to the pub, and the regroup was located in the parking lot nearby!

Back to the pub to settle in and find some beverages and food in anticipation of the down down’s.

Good deals on the beer and food, so everyone was happy to this point!

The Down Down’s

The previous week, Insane Bolt volunteered to the the Religious Advisor (RA) for the down down ceremonies. As such, he has had a week to think about and prepare material.

Insane Bolt launched into action. He appointed a choir of Mr. PeeeeeNut and Shakesbeer, who sang themselves a song.
