Well over a 100 hot and thirsty hashers crowded the Waiau tavern for the 7th ? “running” of the Fat Katz 2019. The usual good natured chaos of pies, beer, tee-shirts and very little exercise. After a few hours of beer and more beer the “run” kicked off with a spring across the road to the park where an old jail soon hosted Father from Rotorua hash - one of only 2 NZ hashes to have chalked up 2000 runs and the originator of NZ Fat Katz. Other fines were dispensed by Xerox and Toyboy before an arduous return journey back to the pub.

120 Hashers started and finished at Five Stags Restaurant Bar. Runners and walkers through the township of Hanmer, with a walk through of the Hot Pools and then the runners covering extra distance through the magnificent bush trails and finally to Dawson Park for the circle and presentation of $4,500 to NZ Lung Cancer ambassador Kate Hodge. A hearty circle with multiple RA’s and multiple multiple charges and songs all overseen by International visitor Higgins. The afternoon wound up with the drinking of a sponsored keg back at the 5 Stags and then on to opening night of Nash Hash
Sign starts at 12, run at 1pm
Great day expected, great cause picked and great company
