Just a note to remind everyone that there are only 12 shopping days left before the next Blooming Fools Hash House Harriers hash, the beloved, pandemian, ebrious and venerable Jingle Balls Hash, which includes a White Elephant gift exchange and pitch-in dinner after the trail.
For the White Elephant gift exchange, please bring a gift to exchange with another hasher -- the more creative, the better. We suggest the gift cost no more than $10, though if you want to spend hundreds, be our guest. Just make sure whatever it is is wrapped for placement beneath the BFH3 tree.
This upcoming Saturday September 19 there will be a BloomingFools Hash.
It will begin at 4:00 pm, Eastern Daylight Saving Time.
The cost will be the customary $5 for veterans, virgins (those who have not before hashed with the BloomingFools Hash House Harriers) may attend for free.
A change of footwear is reccomended as shoe wetness may be encountered on trail, a more complete selection of dry wardrobe components & a fluffy towel are certainly elements which should be considered by those who would enjoy immersing themselves more fully in the refreshing waters during the adventure.
Hashers and Wankers,
Get ready for another trail, courtesy of Snips
What: Trail
When: Saturday 4pm
Cost: $5
Where: 1 Casa de Snips Drive. Also known as 1600 E Hillside Dr, Heritage Apartments, across from Deer Park.
How to get there: From IU head(!) south on Woodlawn. Turn Left on Hillside Drive. Continue for ~1/2 mile and turn Right into Heritage Apartments. Drive to the back of the Red Brick buildings. Hash.
What: Le Tour De Griffy Hash (BFH3 hash #whateverweareuptonow)
When: Saturday July 11, 2009, 4:00
Where: Lake Griffy, Bloomington
How (much): 5 Francs
Who (is the hare): Pepe Le Pew Hot 'n Juicy
Why: do you need an excuse? OK, say it's to get some fresh air.
As the hash gathered for the Hotter’n’Hell Hash on June 27, Blooming Fool old-timer Hot’n’Juicy was out in California somewhere, some eight-odd hours into the Western States 100-Mile Race. Last we heard, he’d been running for five hours and had covered 29 miles. Only 71 more to go.
Wankers: Its hot, its steamy. Time for a tropical hash. Bring your
well-worn sneakers and as little else as you can comfortably wear or as
little as your fellow hashers are comfortable with you wearing and come
out for this shig-o-rific trail. Word has it that Nasdiq O' d'Norte,
may co-hair.
Where: Intersection of Mt. Ebal Rd and Fairfax Road. Just north of
(before) the pay gate at Fairfax State Rec. Area. Here is a link:

Good day hashers!
The next Blooming Fools hash—the 12 Years and Counting Hash—will take place this Saturday, June 13, starting at 4 p.m. from the parking lot behind the Cyber Infrastructure Data Center on the IU campus. Your hare will be White Lightning, and it’s going to cost you $5 (still cheap!) unless you’re a first-timer, in which case it’s free. There will be beer, there will be trail, there will be shiggy, and there will be quality cheezy poofs. Dammit.
Hash Trash: The Second Annual Roller Derby Hash
OK, I was out and about last Saturday afternoon, stopping by the library to get a Nancy Drew book to read for my book cl—oops, I mean, for my son to read for his book club—and it was, like, 3:15, so I thought I’d head (head?) over to Twin Lakes Sports Park and wait for the hash to start. I figured I’d have a good 40 minutes before anyone showed, so I could hang out and read for a while. (When you have a page-turner like “The Flying Saucer Mystery,” sometimes you just can’t wait to get reading!)
The next Blooming Fools Hash House Harriers hash will take place on Saturday, May 30, starting from the parking lot of the Twin Lakes Sports Complex at 4 p.m. The hare will be Garden o' Beatin', and the cost will be $5, unless you're a first-timer, in which case you're free. Free! FREE!
Twin Lakes Sports Complex is on Second Street. From Walnut, head west on Second Street and the entrance is on the right after you pass the Sportsplex. If you get lost, call 219-6566.
