Half-Assed Hash

Our hash was created to welcome Virgins to experience the wonders of hashing without being scared off by the idea of putting feet to the pavement in the honor of fun. While other hashes in the area are tried and true, and definitely offer a great time, our hash expands on some different traditions with the focus more on fun than running. But we are NOT a "walking" hash. Our trails offer as much shiggy and fun as other hash trails, at a fraction of the size! Our only set rules are that the virgins are welcome, the beer is flowing and the trails are not too long!

What is hashing??
One or more Hares will set a trail in flour, chalk or toilet paper over any kind of terrain. The Pack will follow shortly and try to catch the Hare(s). The Hare(s) will try to slow the pack down with various checks, false trails, difficult terrain and, our favorite, drink checks! At the end we celebrate with a ceremony called Religion, sing songs, eat and drink.
