UPDATE, JANUARY 2016:

We no longer have an internet Gnome representative available to chat online.  Subscription costs were initiated which were prohibitive for our non existant budget.  Please direct question and contact to [email protected] as a last resort as responses may be in Gnome time rather than Human time.

  UPDATE 8/21/06:

We, the Gnomes of HUGRS, were greatly disturbed when we saw that the advertising space we had opened up our website, in order to help fund our GeoCities subscription costs, was partially populated by ads from Gnome Slave Traders.  We have contacted our advertising agency and blocked ads from these sites, so they will be removed within a few hours. 

We will continue to monitor the ads placed on our site and block ads rented by slave traders in the future.  Thank you for your continued support of HUGRS.

New Gnome Portals Installed!

New Gnome Portals have been installed by the HUGRS Engineer Club.  Almost a dozen Gnomes arrived at the Reserve en masse by using these portals today.  A few landed in unintended locations: (1.)
toe deep in the toilet bowl (2.) inside the freezer (3.) inside the brown bears food canister (4.) inside the rats personal residence.
