Location

Pullo Performing Arts Center, Penn State York http://pullocenter.yk.psu.edu/ The hash in a building. However, the building was not actually open to the public at the time of the meetup.

Plans

I'm going to try to make it. If so, I should be bringing my wife and daughter. WhiteDragon 14:57, 23 March 2012 (EDT)

Expedition

I was excited about getting my first hash. I was hoping for the Tron achievement as well, so we carefully planned our route to not intersect itself. That was thwarted when I missed the first turn into the parking lot, requiring going to the second entrance, which would have required crossing my path. When we got to the building, it was locked, and a security guard was parked outside.
