We have been having trouble finding people to set runs. We have openings in the future that need to be filled. As of last week, this run did not have a hare. Thankfully, Hot Cheeks succumbed to run setting frequency guilt and volunteered to set trail. She managed to conscript Menage-a-Trois to not only help, but to host the venue.
The pack arrived to Menage’s leafy neighbourhood and found a parking place. A good turnout of close to 30 hashers was a good sign. We had to follow the marks to the back yard which was our assembly point.
Still daylight at the beginning, we pack mingled in the back yard in anticipation of the run start.
Mingling in progress
PMS called to pack to circle up in the front yard. The pack complied and a circle formed on the front yard.

The hares were called into the circle to describe the marks. With much enthusiasm, the hares described the trail they had planned for us!

With the instructions done, we were released to find the trail markings.
The Trail
The pack spread out to find the marks. After some well placed check backs, the true trail was revealed.

Following marks we made it back to the regroup, which happened to be at the same place we started. We set up chairs and enjoyed refreshment in the backyard.

As the beverages were prepared, the activities progressed to the down down’s.

Hump the Shark performed the role of Religious Advisor. Dastardly did a fine job of organizing the refreshments.

Trail Summary
A fine trail through the neighbourhoods of Upper Mount Royal, Lower Mount Royal and Cliff Bungalow. Close to 5 km’s of trail were enjoyed.
A lot to pack in to the last run in September. Not only was it orange shirt day everywhere, it was the annual Erections run where new MisManagement is announced.
The start location was the Marda Loop Brewing Company. As Marda Loop is in a perpetual state of reconstruction with associated detours and parking challenges. My GPS directed me on a road that was closed.
Thankfully, we new about the secret parking behind the pub, and all was made good again. People in orange gathered in the pub awaiting the start of the run.
On In and PMS declared that it was time to form a circle outside on the sidewalk. Another feature of the run was impending darkness. The shortness of daylight is becoming more a headlight required condition for enjoying the run.

250 runs. Nice hatThis are all the marks you need to know about.
Hot Cheeks pointed in a direction and the pack was released.
The Trail
The trail headed off into the streets and sidewalks of the Marda Loop neighbourhood. Many checks and false trail were included in the mix. Eventually, the trail was discovered and followed.

With the light fading, we eventually made our way to the regroup which was in a secret location.

A fine selection of refreshments were enjoyed prior to heading back to the pub for the down down’s and erections.

We had a section of the patio reserved for the group. As we got settled in, the fine Marda Loop Brewing products came out.

Hump the Shark was appointed as Religious Advisor and the refreshments were poured and made ready.

The choir was Skewbic Hair and Slow Clap. Between the two of them, they knew just about enough songs.
The celebration of the run started with acknowledging the hares. Then multiple offences and crimes before the big event….Erections!

And then, PMS took charge to announce the new mismanagement.
Are you ready for this?
As mismanagement positions are highly desirable and sought after, the back room wheeling and dealing was complete and we had a team engaged to sustain the group for another year.
On In was thanked for his tenure as co Hashmaster, and Insane Bolt will fill his shoes. PMS was coerced in holding onto her Hashmatress role for “one more year”.

There were other changes in the ranks, and this will be posted on the website. Here is a group shot of CH3 MisManagement: 2024-2025.

On the piss was declared and we were done.

Run Summary
The trail ended up close to 5 km’s, depending on how you managed the check backs and false trails.
