What is Hashing? Hashing can be considered as the chase between the Hare(s) (or Fox if you prefer) and the Hounds. Hashers are a group of people who usually meet once or twice a week for the purpose of socializing, singing songs, drinking beer (or the beverage of your choice), and running. Hashers meet at a predetermined location at a predefined time. Once all the hashers are gathered (the Pack), one or more hashers in that pack that have volunteered or were volunteered (the Hares) start to lay a trail. After 12 minutes (on average), the Pack will start to follow the laid trail trying to catch the hares (HARE SNARE). The trail is usually cross country, through bushes, water, mud, (SHIGGY) hills and whatever else the Hares can find to run/walk the pack through. The Pack follows marks or signs left by the Hare(s) (TRAIL) to the finish (ON- IN). The Hares are tricky little wankers who try to deceive the pack. Although the Hares do lay a (TRUE TRAIL) trail to finish, they also lay false trails as well to try and deceive the pack in order not to get snared. Once the pack has reached the ON-IN, the hashers socialize, sing songs and most importantly... drink BEER, or their beverage of your choice.
