Hey Wanks!

Here are the details for this year's Hash Ball:

Who: CH3, et al

What: Come out and enjoy food and drink with your fellow hashers as we welcome a new GM. Dress as your favorite TV star or dress to impress. We've got a $35 package that includes ALL draft beer, well liquor, wine, soda AND some select bottomless apps.

When: February 26, 7-1o p.m.

Where: Kirkwood Bar & Grill (2934 N. Sheffield - corner of Sheffield & Oakdale)

Why: Just any old excuse to get together without having to worry about some pesky trail.

How to pay: Either in person (at a hash or at the door) or by paypal. Add $2 for paypal fees.


How (to get there)

CTA - Brown Line to Wellington, walk west to Sheffield then down a block or so or Red Line to Belmont and walk West to Sheffield and three blocks South to Oakdale. The bar is on the west side of the street at the corner of Sheffield & Oakdale. You can also take the Diversey 76 bus East to Sheffield and walk three blocks North to Oakdale.

Driving - I don't recommend it because a) you'll be drinking and b) it's Lincoln Park on Saturday night.

9Feb/11Off

Chicago HHH Run #1708 Sunday 2/13 – 2:00 PM @ Burton Place

Hares:  Mt. Schwiiinga & Sandy Syphylis

Environmentally-friendly public transportation:
From Lincoln Park/Lakeview - Red Line to Division, hoof it a couple blocks West on Division to Wells and then North on Wells or the Brown Line to Sedgwick and hoof it East on North Ave from Sedgwick to Wells and then South on Wells.
From Wicker Park/Bucktown - Blue Line to Division, take the Division 70 Bus East to Wells, hoof it a couplea blocks North to the bar.

Driving:
Hop into your hooptie and cruise to basically North Ave and Wells. Parking in Old Town sucks worse than warm Icehouse. Best bet is to look South of North Ave and West of Wells as Lincoln Park and the Gold Coast are NOT the places to look for parking on the Near North Side.

Driving  :(

Hop into your hooptie and cruise to the intersection of Sheffield and Webster. Look for whatever parking you can find tho not much is good around there. Side streets are Zone 143 Permit after 6pm. If you wish to drive you are in luck Kelly's has parking next to the building under the el. Best way to access this is to use Sheffield if going north turn right in the alley right before you see Webster. Make a left under the EL and park your car. If you are cumming from the North Cross Webster and make an immediate left into the alley and park under the el on the left side. CARS MUST BE MOVED by MIDNIGHT!!!

Hash Cash:  $8

Event:  The 1700th Run of the Chicago Hash House Harriers!

From the hares:  Our theme will be "Lumberjacks"


Dust off that old Canadian accent, eh, because our visiting hare from British Columbia has called for a Lumberjack theme (as in Monty Python), so pull out your best flannel, your oldest CH3 hash attire and celebrate R*n 1700 at the Anthrax Hangover Hash.

We will be r*nning out of Manhattan's at 415 S. Dearborn. The bar is near CTA Blue, Red and Loop Trains, as well as approximately a 15 minute walk to Union Station for people heading home on Amtrak/MegaBus.

There will be a Walkers Trail and a "Lifa Trail" set specifically for Lifa and anyone else crazy enough to r*n it. Visitors on the Walkers Trail can expect to see around 6 Chicago sights and Lifa Trail will hit around 10, so take your camera if you're not a local.

There will be a beer/shot stop on trail and there will also be an additional/optional beer and wine stop; bring cash and ID on trail if you'd like some extra booze.

Commemorative event tags for the first 20 people to pay hash cash.
