Hare Guide
- Public property is simple, private property - please obtain permission. Do not take the pack across "No Trespassing" signs without permission - otherwise in pretty good shape.
- Please try and pick a start/end location out of the way that does not draw attention to us for singing and holding red solo cups.
- Please scout well in advance and be familiar with the tides (work them how you wish).
- Please post info about trail on Facebook by Sunday evening of your weeks trail including start location address and directions if you like but most important is an address. That way we can cross post it on Meetup & our website for folks that do not use FB or don't have access to our page.
- 2:00 pm is usual meet for trail time - can change if you need/want it to.
- $6 beer /$7 cider is typical cost and generally stay at that price unless something beyond regular (pub crawls).
- Trail is usually 2-4 miles depending on shiggy level, lasting around an hour or so on trail.
- Hares should bring flour, toilet paper, chalk - whatever you need to set trail.
- Hares to bring beer check beer usually about 10-15 beers each check, water, and Gatorade. Shot stops are by design of the hares. Bring enough ice to keep your beer and shot checks cold.
- We have Beer Meisters - their job is to bring all of the beer, cider & orange food, except your beer check bevs.
- Bring receipt for what you buy (beer & cider) and the hash will reimburse (up to $25). The hash is intended to be self sufficient. **Note: All receipts must have items purchased for the hash, circled and a tally of these items on the back of the receipt and turned over for reimbursement by hashcash** any leftovers will return to the Beer Meister.
- You also get to pick an on after - hopefully very close by were people can get food after trail and less imbibing for safe rides home.
- An early beer check is your friend for giving you more time on trail. We really promote live trails where hares run in front of pack and pack is trying to catch, but you can prelay sections to give yourself more time too. If you get caught - no big deal - we give you more time from there. I get caught 1 out of 4-5 trails - pack has fun when they catch hares once in a while too - thats what they are trying to do.
- All turns must have an intersection or a mark that turns you. Leave enough marks to make pack work a little but don't lose them. More marks is better. You explain all your intended marks at chalk talk.
That's the basics.
After trail there will be a circle run by the RA
Have fun!!!!
