Just when you thought it would never happen .... Haggissimo set’s a r*n !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Saturday August 4th: Venue RUMLANG : Address Chilestieg 17 OCCASION 1 – To celebrate Gispert's Birthday on July 31st The founder of the HASH, A. S. "G" Gispert, in 1937 discovered the Springgit Harriers, one of the paper chase clubs, in Malacca. He introduced Ronald "Torch" Bennett to the concept and the stage was set. When "G" returned to Kuala Lumpur in 1938, he became a member of the Federated Malay States Volunteer Reserves, which trained on Mondays. "G" and many of the other ex-pat Brits were housed in barracks in the Royal Selangor Club where he and "Torch" would often discuss starting a harrier club in KL (Kuala Lumpur). Finally in about December of 1938, "G" convinced about a dozen others to follow his inaugural paper trail. Gispert then suggested the name of HASH HOUSE HARRIERS in mock allusion to the mess at the Selangor Club, where many of them dined. The runs were held Monday evenings after reserve training and were followed by refreshment of Tiger beer. A. S. "G" Gispert was killed in battle defending Singapore from the Japanese at 0400 hours 11 February 1942. The HASH has grown from those humble beginnings to include thousands of chapters and tens of thousands of hashers worldwide. OCCASION 2 – New Flat warming party OCCASION 3– Sacrificing of the Virgins … can promise you 2, maybe even 3. ON..ON…
Haggissimo
