It's hard to imagine that it was 20 years ago on a wet October
afternoon that the first running of the Blue Hen Hash House Harriers
occurred, when a pack of 20 people managed to piss off farmers,
elude park rangers, and polish off a 1/2 barrel of beer and 8 pizzas
in the midst of a state park, but … well, the fact that the calendar
says 2012 presents the cold reality of the matter.<br>
<br>
And so you are cordially invited to join the Blue Hen Hash House
Harriers as they celebrate their Emerald Jubilee the weekend of
October 19-21, 2012. <br>
<br>
We've had our foibles, from the problems inherent in advertising a
"Drinking Club with a Running Problem" as underage students to
having kegs dumped out in front of us, but we've also come out the
other end with some epic stories: from invading cities in the
midwest to putting people in clothes driers in laundromats to see if
it would still turn.<br>
<br>
We've gotten kicked out of more bars than we'd care to remember,
and presented new kennels with twelve pound FRB awards with those
very same letters etched in the steel award by a CNC machine. <br>
<br>
Despite a small core group, our notoriety still manages to precede
us, from rugby clubs in Wichita to the mark our members have made
from Dublin to Portland, Pittsburgh to the Humpin' hash. and
Washington to Denver: we're still here, causing trouble, eliciting
groans from the pack as they enter from 200 yards of slime and muck
separating them from the ON IN! and curses from the FRBs as they
come back from the 1/2 mile false trail.<br>
<br>
<u><b>Without further ado:<br>
</b></u><br>
<b>What:</b> The 20th Anniversary of the Blue Hen Hash House
Harriers<b><br>
When</b><b>:</b> October 19th-21st, 2012<b><br>
Where:</b> In and Around Darlington, MD, USA<br>
<b>Hares</b>: Fuk Stik and Other Special Guests<br>
<b>How Much:</b> $30/person for Saturday's Run and Giveaway
(campground fees are extra)<br>
Dogs: Unclear at this point<br>
Kids: You're responsible for 'em, but I'm sure ankle biters will be
present<br>
<br>
<u><b>Details!</b></u><br>
<br>
The event will be held in Susquehanna State Park in (ironically)
Maryland, where we're hoping to rent out the majority of the
campsites and cabins in the campground. There will be runs on both
Friday and Saturday, and we are currently working with the Hockessin
Hash on a joint run for Sunday (it will be an actual run, not a
"hangover" trail). In an attempt to keep down costs, the run fee
will cover the Saturday trail and giveaway only. Friday night we'll
have a potluck at the campsite and Sunday we will probably end up at
a bar or someone's house after the run.<br>
<br>
We recommend: (a) carpooling, and (b) reserving your cabin or
campsite early due to limited availability: <br>

<br>
Online Registration for the hash itself and more details will be
available soon, but we wanted to put this out there so that folks
could mark their calendars and reserve campsites.<br>
