RUN NO. 2100

DATE: 18 NOVEMBER (FOUNDERS DAY - HASH ODDITY 2100)
SITE: SERASA YACHT CLUB
HARES: GM Ready Mix/JM Carol
HENS: 57 CHICKS: 3
FRONT HORN: Magic BACK HORN: Trailblazer

Neither one of us did complete the whole run but this is our version of what we did and saw last week:

It was a live hash - the first for some of us and so it was quite exciting because the hares were given a five minute head start before the rest of us began the hash. Nellie kept time and started us off. It was basically a road run for about half the run and then it turned further left up a hill. Since the uphill path looked rather muddy and wet and many came with regular shoes expecting a shoreline run. One large group steered away from the potential muddy path and did a U-turn back in anticipation of Founder’s night preparation.

Back at the ladies restroom, hens were clucking and adding feathers and paint whilst competing for mirror space getting ready for the odyssey in space. Founders night venue, despite being a last minute decision, lived up to expectations. Who were there - from aliens to princesses to Spock and the rest is left to your imagination. Food was superb with enough for all palettes and taste.

We received goodies on a random draw basis - torches, iron, raincoats, caps - all well appreciated. Of special interest is the list of special awards - longest run, shortest, wettest, and the imaginative list was quite long but neither of us took notes so no names mentioned here except one -Madam Sin received her 400th run award and spent it doing her hair.

It was a long night but this is only a short account of it. Bottom line is that the leaving committee did a wonderful job giving us a bash to remember and going out with a bang.

Welcome new committee!
