Hash Calls Hash Calls are used to help guide the pack during trail. This is a list of commonly heard calls: “On-On” Called when a hasher has seen three consecutive marks and is certain that they are on true-trail. “On-One”, “On-Two” Called when a hasher has seen one or two marks after a check, but is not yet certain if they are on the true trail. “On-Call” When one hasher calls “On-On” others may follow them and shout “On-Call” until they personally confirm that they are indeed on-on. “On-Left”, “On-Right”, “On-Over” The trail is taking a turn in that direction. “Are you?” Short for “Are you On Trail?”. Called from a check to determine if someone has found trail. Appropriate responses are: “On-One”, “On-Two”, “On-On” or “Checking”. “Checking” Response to “Are you?” when you are trying to solve a check but have not yet found any...

Knickerbocker Hash House Harriers Description Founded by Wet Connection, Noah’s Dinghy and Mean Jean the Down-down Machine in January 2009 in response to the ever increasing need of NYC hashers to always have something to do. Sadly, the Knickerbocker was laid to rest in May of 2012. Then one fateful night in October of 2012, something rose from within the Knickerbocker, with a need so great it throbbed and pulsed. That need was born out of having nothing better to do on a Wednesday night and a blatant disregard for the possibility of drinking at a bar without all the complicated mess of hashing to get there. What A C*nt!, seeing that nobody else was going to take care of this problem, took it upon herself to raise that which had lain dormant. Employing the help of a gay man, two hot chicks and Cheeky Bastard, she vowed to make whatever strokes necessary to keep it up until its climax in the spring. The mismanagement of the Knick then became centered around the idea that Wednesday hashes should be simple and easy to get to (hello, downtown Manhattan!), and should employ the use of many songs and lots of bare butts. The season culminates in the Knick’s only special event, the “Knickerbocker in your Knickers,” just for folks who’ve always dreamed about r*nning around Manhattan in their underwear. Schedule The Knickerbocker H3 runs every other Wednesday (alternating with the NAWW) during the winter months, from October to April. To hare for the Knick, send an email to WAC at intrepidsquirrel@gmail.com Mis-Management 2013-2014 Grand Maîtresse What A C*nt! Vice Master...

Hash Marks Last updated: 9 May 1995 The following was lifted from Mustang Sally of Pike’s Peak H3. Minor editing has rendered it applicable to New York. A “hash” is a sporting event based on the old English game of “hare and hounds.” The hare sets the trail using hash marks and the hounds attempt to follow. Attempt is the key word, as the hare tries their best to confuse, confound and bamboozle the hounds. Anything goes in a hash, but the one constant is beer: before, during and after the hash, in copious quantities. The trail is usually indicated by a series of hash “marks” layed down in flour, chalk, kool-aid, lime or whatever is handiest. There are some fairly standard marks but each hash “club” is free to interpret or embellish on these at will. A blob of flour or an arrow This mark indicates that you are on trail (maybe). It depends, in some clubs on how many you see (3 and you are definitely “on”)–other clubs ignore that custom early and often. It also depends on what marks you see following this one. For example, False (F or three lines) This marks indicates you are on a false trail. You must have been using your brain: don’t! Go back to the last time you saw a check mark or just run around aimlessly hoping to pick up trail at random–your choice. “What’s a check mark?”, you ask? Check (Cross or X or Circle with X or Circle by itself) The check mark indicates that the trail has come to an abrupt halt. Where...
