What about a group of Hashers? There is no similar word for what a group of Hashers is called. Hash Boy believes this needs to be officially rectified.
You may be spitting out your beer right about now and yelling “KENNEL!” at your screen. Yelling “KENNEL!” might make you feel better, but a group of Hashers may be a pack enjoying a beer check on an Interhash trail and that pack may be comprised of hashers from dozens or hundreds of different kennels. So the world needs a new word to refer to a group of hashers.
