This message includes a few updates from the original announcement. Directions now feature more granular details to help with navigation.
Attached is our updated schedule in excel and PDF formats. Since this is a hybrid event with SWH3, their schedule appears below our 2025 date slots—handy if you're curious about their hash list (we’ve included a link to their site).
The location is in Raleigh, meeting at a parking lot fronted by a row of trees for privacy. Additional parking is available across the street if needed.
Details follow below. I anticipate an engaging trail in fresh hash territory. On-On!

Dogs: Yes – we love dogs, but keep them leashed.
Walkers: Welcome! If there’s a sweeper, consider sharing guidelines like these:
• We strongly recommend bringing along a GPS with the destination address saved.
• Use the buddy system with other walkers. If the pack takes off without you, stay with the sweeper.
• All of this said, the hares won’t be responsible for hashers who wander off-course.
Wordz from da Hares:
Just a normal trail. Mostly urban.
Beer Break? Certainly!
Refreshments afterward? Sure!
Things to Remember:
● Be prompt! We aim to start soon after the meetup time. Hares can set the maximum pack-off time.
Travel Tip for Hashers from Afar: Whether you’re crossing county lines or navigating winding roads, plan ahead! Allow plenty of time—the route may be unfamiliar, and we’ll start soon after the meetup time. GPS is your friend… and so is punctuality.
● Bring a bag with comfy clothes and footwear for the Après, plus sunscreen, bug spray, or anything else you might need.
● Got a lawn chair? Bring it! We have some seating, but more is always welcome.
● Questions or Lost? Here’s our contact information:
Tight Lips/Jody: Don’t call her!!!
Instead, contact the other hare,
Gockel Stumper/John: 201-655-2630
We’ll see you at the hash.
Don’t make us send the sweeper to your couch—come seek true trail and earn your beer!
Cheers, and On-On!
