Taiping Hash: Dongming Shan IV: May 23

Several hashers have noticed a trend on the Taiping Hash, and made a request:

¡°Why so many girls sign up?¡±

¡°Give me some motivation by inviting more young men so I will try approaching
and catching them¡±

So, all the athletic young men out there, take this as your invitation to show
up for the ladies.

Kindly respond if you will attend so we can arrange the buses and the bash.

The dinner will feature wild mountain chicken and plenty ice cold beer.

Note that the bus will return to Jinqiao, which may be in time for the SHHH
festivities.

Taiping Hash: Dongming Shan IV: May 23

The Taiping Hash returns yet again to Dongming Shan Forest Park for a pleasant
stroll over some hills and through bamboo forests. Wild strawberries, rippling
creeks, scenic temples, and tea plantations will greet hashers in the park,
which is northwest of Hangzhou.

There will be a short run, as well as a longer run.

We strongly encourage everyone to carry water on the run. There is nowhere to
buy water along the trail. We will ensure that there will be enough water on the
bus (and at the finish).

The run has almost no shiggy. It will be a run.
