announcing the imminent birth of Europe's newest hash
Basel Hash House Harriers
Saturday 13 Jan, 1996
YOU MIGHT ASK:
where the hell is Basel (bale for the French, basle for the brits)
(were gonna do this slow so the americans can follow along)
1) find a map, one of the round ones will do
2) find Europe on the map,
(its the funny shaped one that looks like a boot kicking a ball)
3) find Switzerland (somewhere above the boot)
find germany (west germany if your map is out-of-date)
find france
4) find all three of the countries in step 3 again, but this
time try to find out were all three intersect.
5) put your finger on the intersection, thats basel
- or for the more geographically endowed hashers -
1) find basel by simply searching for a part of switzerland
that is ideal for a big messing chemical producing swiss industry.
you know an area with a big river flowing out switzerland and
winds that always blow out of switzerland. thats basel.
nice clean city, but dont go north to france, cause shit flows
downstream (those swiss aint too dumb at times)
YOU MIGHT ASK:
what is the plan for the virgin lay (weekend, single day, week long event?)
this is were you might recognize some of that daytona influence
"we dont know yet"
i can assure you there will be beer and good times ... "trust me" *reg.
current plans are in the works, at a minimum crash space will be
available, but we are trying to target a sat/sun type event
YOU MIGHT ASK:
cost: hey its switzerland, dont ask
YOU MIGHT ASK:
why should i go,
cuz we need the support to get this hash off to a great start
so get out your calendars and day planners (mark the date 13 Jan 1996)
oh yea, if helping to get a new hash off to a good start is not enough
we will have beer as well.
or cuz you work for the airlines AGAIN and can fly for free
or you want to bring lots of free t-shirts to promote you hash's bid
for the interhash
or cuz you've been unemployed so long that you've driven that car from
one side of the US to the other so many times you need to come to europe
for a change
or cuz you get paid in free airlines tickets (jez what a sweat deal)
or cuz its only a short train ride
or cuz you havent done anything off the wall in the past few minutes
YOU MIGHT ASK:
TENTATIVE details about basel H3
we plan to hash the second saturday afternoon of every month
email: for now rader@isti.fr, many more to follow
www page: i got no idea how to make one, but once i figure it out
i will ask someone else to do it ( Malcumm-Eggs ? )

Announcing the Imminent Birth of Europe's Newest Hash
(version II the updates)
Basel Hash House Harriers
Basel Switzerland
virgin lay is a weekend event
12-14 January 1996
The virgin lay will be based out of the "ideal" venue for such a momentous
event. We have secured a complex specifically designed to accommodate
people with the minds of small children. We will base all of the
weekend events from this venue. The venue will also have rooms reserved
for crash space.
The virgin lay weekend starts at 18h00 on Friday 12 January 1996
The water breaking event will be a pub crawl starting after registration
(around 20h00ish)
Saturday afternoon will be the official birth of the Basel H3.
We will have a hash in the country side, preceded and followed by drinking.
We will eventually return back to the venue for dinner and continued
merry making.
Sunday morning will be the first official nursing of the Basel H3
as we nurse our hangovers with a hash through downtown Basel
DETAILS:
COST: includes venue, crash space, sat dinner, sunday breakfast, beer, etc
(t-shirt may be included or ale-a-cart)
final price structure is still under construction but it will be
less than 100 CHF (swiss francs)
CRASH SPACE:
this is crash space in the purest sense of the word.
communal rooms with lots of floor will be available at the venue
(a limited number of mats might be available)
ps take a hint from jammies, avoid the hard floor by staying up
all night drinking. once you finally fall face down, it wont
matter how hard the floor is, just so long as it stops spinning
REGISTRATION:
please contact the official disorganizer incharge of registration forms
for a detailed registration form.
we are also trying to get a good guess at the head count so PLEASE
let us know if you think you can make it as soon as possible
email mealticket and jammies or call mealticket
t-shirts will be first registered first served,
when they are gone ... they are gone so register early
reorders are doubtful
