White House Hash House Harriers (WH⁴)

The “Unexpected Mothers and the Men Who Knocked Us Up” Trail

“My mother had a great deal of trouble with me, but I think she enjoyed it”
~ Mark Twain

Mother’s Day: Come out and celebrate your Mother’s day with a bunch of unruly wankers who clearly never got enough from their mothers! Join in the festivities as hashers wander the streets of Alexandria asking, “Are you my mother?” and shouting, “But I never wanted to be a mom!”

You can even bring your mom (so long as she’s a “Virgin” or a “MILF”)…

First attempts to establish a holiday (from Wikipedia)

Early "Mother's Day" in the U.S. was mostly marked by women's peace groups. A common early activity was the meeting of groups of mothers whose sons had fought or died on opposite sides of the American Civil War . There were several local celebrations in the 1870s and the 1880s, but none achieved resonance beyond the local level.

In 1868 Ann Jarvis created a committee to establish a "Mother's Friendship Day" whose purpose was "to reunite families that had been divided during the Civil War", and she wanted to expand it into an annual memorial for mothers, but she died in 1905 before the celebration became popular. (Her daughter Anna Jarvis would continue her mother's effort shortly later, see below.)

In New York City , Julia Ward Howe led a "Mother's Day" anti-war observance in 2nd June, 1872, which was accompanied by a Mother's Day Proclamation . The observance continued in Boston for about 10 years under Howe's personal sponsorship, then it died out.

Several years later, a Mother's Day observance on May 13, 1877 was held in Albion, Michigan , over a dispute related to the temperance movement . According to local legend, Albion pioneer, Juliet Calhoun Blakeley, stepped up to complete the sermon of the Rev. Myron Daughterty, who was distraught because an anti-temperance group had forced his son and two other temperance advocates to spend the night in a saloon and become publicly drunk. In the pulpit, Blakeley called on other mothers to join her. Blakeley's two sons, both traveling salesmen, were so moved that they vowed to return each year to pay tribute to her and embarked on a campaign to urge their business contacts to do likewise. At their urging, in the early 1880s, the Methodist Episcopal Church in Albion set aside the second Sunday in May to recognize the special contributions of mothers.

Frank E. Hering , President of the Fraternal Order of Eagles , made the first known public plea for "a national day to honor our mothers" in 1904.
