Getting Our Shit Together |

As we mentioned in the previous update Pay Pal was giving us trouble. If you were able to pay through them do not worry we have your payment. But we are unable to use them now. Not too worry! We are negotiating with a local tour company to take payments through their credit card facility(VISA and MASTERCARD only). This should be up and running in the next week or so. We will send out an email explaining how to make payments for all of you who have registered but have been unable to pay. For those of you who have not registered once this new system is up and running you will be able to both pay and register at the same time. This tour company will become the official tour company of Africa Hash 2011and are offering to help with accommodation bookings and with post amble tours and any other ambling you wish to make while in Ethiopia. Further details on what they will offer will be posted once we have confirmed the contract with them. Needless to say this will simplify all travel arrangements to and from Ethiopia leaving more time for beer consumption. Lastly Ethiopian Airlines has confirmed their offer of %25 off international flights to Addis ababa for the event! This will involve hashers applying through the Africa Hash Committee so that we can confirm you have registered and paid. We will then forward your info to the nearest Ethiopian Airlines branch office who will contact you about payment and issuing tickets. If you fly on Ethiopian Airlines to Addis Ababa regardless of the discounted fare you have the added bonus of receiving resident rates on all domestic flights within Ethiopia. This is a big saving for traveling by air around Ethiopia! The Africa Hash 2011 official tour company will be unable to book international flight but they will be able to book your domestic flights. In the coming days we will be posting updates on the event itself, the pre amble in Uganda, and the post amble in Bahir Dar. In the meantime keep those registrations coming in and come run with LUCY!!! |

On 2 December 1981 a group of expatriates in Addis Ababa, including teachers at Sanford English Community School, set and ran a Hash, and the Addis Ababa Hash House Harriers was born. The first AAHHH Newsletter appeared in January 1982, setting forth a schedule of runs through mid-year. It was on 29 June 1985 that the Addis Hash ran its 100th run. The 500th run took place on 17 April 1993. The 1000th run milestone was reached on 31 August 2002. Run No. 1350 took place on 14 March 2009. |
