This is our AGM run!!!
That’s the start of a new membership year, and also the start of a new committee year. So please bring your pocket money to renew your membership, and also think about joining the committee.
The run-site is next to a small river (or large stream?) in the Ulu Tamu area, beyond Batang Kali and not far past the hot springs.
Like everything else at the moment (and until the end of the year, if not longer), we have an SOP to follow, so:
– please stay at home if you have a fever or other symptoms
– when registering, please wear face-masks, present foreheads for temperature measurement, wave elbows instead of shaking hands, and bring a phone to scan our QR code (MySejahtera)
– please remember social distancing – even in the wide open spaces and fresh air, there are still rules
We will be serving drinks as usual, but recommend that you bring your own snacks/picnics.
If you want to make a mini-holiday of it, there are a number of eco-resorts very close by, with prices from RM60 for a chalet at Kem Rimba Tamu (where we ran from in January – call Sunan at 013 388 0713 and say Cesare from the Junior Hash sent you) to a lot more money for glamping at Dusun Bonda, both of which have accommodation overlooking the river.

– Turn right at the traffic lights by Batang Kali police station, onto the B113 (Jalan Batang Kali – Hulu Yam Baru)

There are many alternative routes, including a number of different junctions off the N-S highway, but all will go past the traffic lights near the Batang Kali police station.
And all will end up following either blue or pink paper for a fun jungle trail!
On On!
