JRH3 History & Traditions
m

The inaugural running of the JRH3 was on Wednesday, January 29th, 2003. The Jolly Roger H3 was founded by Dabadoo who's mother hash was the Big Lik H3, in Adana Turkey, while stationed at Incirlik Air Force Base. Hostitute, was the co-founder. The  JRH3 was started for those people who depend upon hashing to get their exercise and not just to get drunk. We don't do pub crawls unless they are preceded with at least 2 or more miles of an actual hash trail (3 or more on weekends) and then only when in costume for dress runs or other times when in costume.

The JRH3 normally meets every Wednesday,  at 6:30 PM / on  trail at 7:30 PM sharp. We also set trails every other  Friday night at 6:30 PM / on  trail at 7:30 PM sharp and every other Saturday afternoons opposite of the Friday night hashes. Saturday hashes during eastern standard time "normally" meet at 3:00 PM and follow trail  at 4:00 PMish. On weekends during daylight savings time, we normally meet at 5:00 PM and follow trail at 6:00 PMish. However, these times are ultimately up to the hare(s) as long as they have a good reason to change these times.

The JRH3 used to conduct "Adventure Hashes" on Sundays where we followed trail in kayaks, bicycles, roller skates, roller blades, etc. However, on March 6th 2012 another local hash was formed called the Bay-To-Beaches H3 that now conducts Adventure Hash type of hashes.

JRH3 trails should normally be set within about a 50 mile radius from the courthouse in downtown Tampa, FL, but should be more centrally located on weeknights. Click here to view the approximate area.

Attendees should "normally" expect trails that are relatively easy with light, dry shiggy, unless otherwise advertised for a particular trail.

The JRH3 awards headbands for members that accomplish their 10th, 25th, 50th, 69th, 100th and for every 25 runs there after. And, you get a free whistle the second time you show up, however, if its a long time between your first and second trail we probably won't know its your second time, so don't be offended if you oveflook you. Let us know anytime you think you should be recognized and were not and we will see to it you get the proper recognition/award the next time you attend. Likewise, hares are recognized for every 10 runs they set by awarding them with a hare tag. Mismanagement members are also given tags with the year they were commandeered.

So, come on out and join us real soon.  Its open to everyone and it only takes half of a mind to participate.
