An early warning.... our next weekend VHHH hash is scheduled for Sunday November 4th. It'll happen in the forest up behind the Lithuanian Military Academy. Start time 11:30.

There has been a lot of work done in this park over the last couple of years and there is now a very good surfaced path network which is easily suitable for kids & walkers etc. There are a few sets of steps up & down some of the steeper hills but in general the entire trail is quite flat.... for the walkers:) Kiltman promises that the runners will know they have thighs at the end of the trail as one or two or even three steep hills will creep into the run:)

Plan at the moment is for a reasonably long trail... but if the weather is bad it'll be shortened:)

OCTOBER BBQ HASH

A large group (for VHH) turned out for the BBQ Hash at JK & Squeekies new house in the deep, dark forests about 35km from Vilnius. Kiltman set the trail which was relatively sedate with no great hills in it:) Most of the Hashers were walkers & they were trustily lead by Kiltman junior (aka Megan). Folks were out and about for the best part of an hour which was ok given the cold wind & not so warm teperatures (but not cold enough for the City to turn the heating on)! [ one highlight for hare Megan was picking up a group of 'random Canadian's ' in the forest towards the end of the trail:)]



Meanwhile back inside our two Colonial types had decide to forsake excercise & concentrate on the art of eating & drinking... which they accomplished in great style... PS bbq's a mean bit of meat:)

Next VHHH Hash will be on NOVEMBER 4th in VINGIS PARK.... details nearer the time (but there is also a Full Moon Hash due at end of October)

OCTOBER 14th HASH..... Timings

Seems like the notice below advertising the VHHH hash / bbq this Sunday forgot to mention timings.... these are (of course) just a little bit important... so:

1. CAR POOL - 11:00 departure from bottom of Pilies (please email if you need / can offer space)

2. HASH START - well allowing everyone to find the place from the centre of town (or center for the Colonials) then the Hash should aim to start at 12:00 rather than the normal 11:30

And of course also forgot to mention the cost.....

10 lts for adults covering all the normal things.... children free:)

Hare is Kiltman...............

VHH HASH 314 - SUNDAY OCT 14th

*** FORCAST IS +8 & SUNSHINE***
Our next event will be a walk/run followed by a BBQ on Sunday October 14 come rain or shine, at Barbara and Mike's place outside of the city.
It will be out at a village called Dailides close to Rudiskes
and is about 35k from Vilnius. We will provide most food and all drink
but we ask that, where possible, a few salads or desserts could be
brought. We are hoping that if the weather is not so good then we will
have a bonfire and I know that we have a large gazebo/tent/marquee
hidden away at the back of the garage. Whether Mike will be able to
unearth it is another matter.

We will need to know numbers and how many cars are available for
transporting people.

DIRECTIONS


Take Savanoriu road out of Vilnius

Get to top of the hill and bear right towards Trakai

Go through two sets of traffic lights

Approximately 300 meters after the second set of lights bear right
towards Druskininkai along the A4

Follow that road passing a café on the right after the 26km distance
marker

Approximately 500m after the café there is a sign on the right
'Rudiskes
12'

Take that road

Pass through Bakieriskes and pass 2 signs Paluknys 4 and Zeronys 8
following the road to the right each time

After another 3.5km you will see a camping sign on the right 'Harmonie
100m' and pointing to the left.

Take that left turn but once on that track keep bearing to the right.
DO NOT GO THROUGH THE GATES INTO HARMONIE

Follow the road for approximately 1 km through the village passing a
small lake on the left and then a yellow house on the right.

The last house on the outskirts of the village, the one with the red
roof, is where you are aiming for.

Good luck


TAKE NOTE. THERE WILL BE NO OUTSIDE SHOES ALLOWED IN THE HOUSE SO BARE
FEET, SOCKS OR INSIDE SHOES WILL BE REQUIRED
