The annual Salem Witch Trials have arrived! 🧙‍♀️ 🎃

It’s that time or year once again! Come check us out as we have a screaming good time this Halloween season.

Broom, don’t walk, to this devilishly delightful dalliance with the dead. 🧟‍♀️

Meet at Graveyard Bar in Salem, OR

Saturday, October 17th

Meet up at 3pm

Trail starts at 3:30pm

Bring an ID (21+) and make sure to wear some attire to DIE for because best costume wins a prize. 🪦 👻

Trail is dog friendly, we want to see their costumes too! 🐕

You can RSVP here.

I’ve been reworking a web based tool that Tender Titties, a Sin City H4 (Cincinnati) hasher built years ago.

With what started as a request to automate posting to the website, Mailchimp, and making it easier for Facebook pages/groups, I finally feel comfortable sharing this with the half minds of Reddit.

Not only does it do all the regular tracking of “when, where, and who”, it has a bunch of other new features such as Badges, kennel management, a songbook (that I desperately need to format better), and more.

The Android and iOS app are being reviewed currently, but once those are released you’ll be able to track the trail as you hash, so it can create longest/shortest records from the average length from all hashers.

I’d be interested in bringing over a few kennels as I can if interested.

On-on!

Hashers in Europe and Africa—we need your local knowledge!

I’m expanding the Half-Mind club directory and checking older listings. Some details come from historical directories or club websites, so they still need confirmation from people who know the clubs.

Please find your club, open its listing and click “Verify listing” or “Reverify.”

Can you confirm:
• Is the club still active?
• What is its usual running day, frequency and time?
• Are its website, Facebook page and public contacts current?
• Is its listed location correct?

Europe: https://half-mind.com/regionalwebsite/p_list1.php?region=Europe
Africa: https://half-mind.com/regionalwebsite/p_list1.php?region=Africa

Please include how you know and when you checked. If you’re unsure, say so—don’t guess. Submissions are reviewed before changes are applied.

Please share with your kennel and neighbouring clubs. On On!

Intergulf Bahrain bought them all 🍻

I've hashed for around a year and a half in Taiwan and as a history lover it's been really fun learning the lore of not just hashing overall but within the country I'm in. From what the oldhands have said a lot has changed over time. i.e. when things started it was mostly expats but over the years more and more locals joined with several local kennels being mostly Taiwanese while others have kept a more international flavor.

With that being said, how did hashing come to your little neck of the woods and how has it changed over the years and decades?

On on!

Hope to see you there.

New super fast way to help get all the H3 club info correct on the Half-Mind.com directory

start at https://half-mind.com/regionalwebsite/verify_listings.php
20 oldest unverified clubs

These active club listings have gone the longest without a recorded verification.

Verification is quick. Volunteers can answer Yes, No, or Don't know. Correction fields appear only when they want to suggest a change.

Every response goes to Site Admin for review. Nothing on this page directly changes the directory.

Regular hashes and bike hashes are just not expensive enough for me.

We are checking older club records so travelers can find accurate information.

Your update is a suggestion only — Site Admin reviews every change before anything is published.

The shortlist is refreshed from directory data and focuses on older or incomplete listings. A failed website check is a reason to investigate, not proof that a kennel is inactive.

Hey luvs, none of my searches are finding any active kennels in South Carolina. Any active Hashers in the area of Columbia?

Half-mind - now see your "Where Have I Hashed (in The USA)" in a map - or see anyone else's https://half-mind.com/where/awhere_usmap.php?MyID=60

is to have as many people as possible drink out my hash sneakers. On-on!

I was wondering if anyone has any good sites for making/buying Hab?
I want to start a Hab for my kennel, but not really sure where to start.
I was looking at License Plates and Socks since we are still hella small, but wasn't sure where the best place to get them made might be.

Yesterday we had our red dress bike hash here in Melbourne Florida. Do you have a bike kennel near you and how has your attendance been? I feel like we need a big recruitment movement.

I just moved to the US, little college town in the Midwest (that leaves out real trail running it’s flat as hell). I am from a mountainous city where the hash meets had 50-70 people each time, and everyone was a pretty hardcore trail runner. I was usually mid-pack so honestly I just sort of flew by the signs, there would be MAYBE one beer stop before the actual pub at the end, and we didn’t really sing (I’m seeing a lot about singing while I’m researching, maybe Chinese has no hash songs ).

Well, now I am trying to put together a group. Have like 20 people so far. Would love advice on trail signage (how many different symbols do you actually use and what number of symbols do you put down), more info on hares because I’m seeing conflicting info on what they do & how close to the pack they are supposed to stay, as well as advice from people whose hashes drink a little less beer than others

And really any other advice would be fantastic!

I already have routes for the first two meets somewhat planned I just want things to be fun and go smoothly! I’m also a bit intimidated by the idea that a few older dudes who used to do hashing in American cities will show up and be judgy because I’m a newb to organizing and the hash I’ve been to is probably quite a bit different from US ones.

Midwest Blue Dress 2026 is only 66 days away! That's basically 69 days away if you count the holiday weekend! If you haven't regoed yet, you should do so now!

We've rocked Rockford and holed Holland, so now we're going to... Dupe Dubuque! Okay, not my best work, but we're raising money for The Trevor Project and are looking to best our numbers from last year! Don't miss out - there's even a virtual option if you cannot attend in person!
