Code of Conduct
The San Francisco Hash has a strict zero tolerance policy. Simply put, if you cannot play by our rules, you cannot play with us at all. The GMs reserve the right to remove anyone in violation without a refund. Please show respect to locals, virgins, visitors, businesses, and your fellow hashers.
1. SFH3 supports ENTHUSIASTIC CONSENT Hashing often involves drinking and, occasionally, nudity. Neither of these imply consent.
-
Yes means yes. NO means NO. STOP means KNOCK THAT SHIT OFF, APOLOGIZE, AND DON’T DO IT AGAIN. Silence is not consent
-
Nudity is not consent
-
If someone says NO, do not manipulate, badger, or pressure to get a yes.
-
If someone is too drunk to give consent, that is also a NO.
-
When in doubt, ask, and then respect the answer you are given. This video is a handy guide in case you are still confused.
-
Getting consent yesterday does not mean that you have consent today!
- If you feel your boundaries are being violated or disrespected, please contact the Safe Word Monitor or the GMS. We are here to help.
2. VIOLENCE AND/OR ASSAULT Violence or assault of any kind is not permitted and is grounds for immediate removal from the hash.
3. PHOTOGRAPHY/VIDEOGRAPHY Do not publish or share any photos, videos, or details of the hash on social media or elsewhere without express permission of those involved. Hashers are a close knit community that rely on your discretion. Use sound judgement on what you post, even within “Secret” and “Closed” Hashing groups.
4. THEFT No stealing. It’s that simple!
5. INTOXICATION Intoxication does occur at the hash. If you find a hasher has exceeded his or her safe limit, please get them to a safe place or enlist the help of mismanagement. Intoxication is not an excuse for violating any other portions of the code of conduct.
6. Events For closed events, only those wearing a wristband will be allowed to take part in all facets of the event including, but not limited to, trails, venues, food, and BEER. Y’all pay good money for this shit, so please do not encourage others to crash the event.
7. HASH RESPECT Don’t be abusive to hashers or non-hashers, including businesses that are supporting us, their staff, or the general public. Be kind to each other.
SFH3 reserves the right to change, modify, or add to these guidelines at any time.
Thank so much for helping us make the hash a fun and safe place for all!
