The New Orleans Hash House Harriers would like to welcome and thank those who have registered early and those planning to register for this year's event. We are putting out this announcement to inform participants of the start and end location, as well as pass along some other information we feel will be beneficial. 

This year's event will be held at Washington Square in the Marigny. Washington Square, which is a gated park, will be open to registered participants at 9am. August 14, 2010. So now that the secret is out, here's some other information you should know and consider: 

Additional considerations for our potential participants: Because Washington Square is a gated park there are limitations on capacity. The New Orleans Hash House Harriers may be forced, because of city permits, to impose a limit to the total number of participants allowed to register and partake in the festivities. It is not our expectation that we would cut off registration but that possibility does exist completely dependent upon the total number of registered participants as the event approaches. For the most part, we feel this would affect people planning to register the day of the event. Should there be a limit imposed, it is likely that there would be no “day of” registrations

One important note is the New Orleans Hash House Harriers would like to invite everyone participating or not to view our 2009 Red Dress Run Press Release at to see where and how the proceeds from RDR 2009 were distributed. Last year we donated $93,000 to local charities and organizations. We look forward to raising even more money this year so we can give back that much more to our community.
