Alright facial hair fans -
We realize that last year we didn't do the best job letting y'all know where our checkpoints were going to be. We were so into being co-organizers that we wanted to savor the feeling of power of calling all the shots, how we wanted, when we wanted. We now realize this was silly, and that the more notice people have, the more likely it will be that they show up. That being said...
We want to give a shout out to the fantastic community members who have been supporting our efforts so far: Bishops Barbershop and :Vendetta (I would link to the website, but it's having some issues at the moment). Special thanks also to Donors Choose for getting our fabulous donation site set up. You, dear reader, can start donating now!
Here's the Calendar of Events for the 2008 Growing Season:
For consistency’s sake, and because we love being predictable, all events will begin at 7:00pm take place on Thursday unless otherwise specified.
November 6: Info Session at :Vendetta, 4306 N Williams Ave
November 13: Clean Shave Day at Bishops Barbershop, 1011 NW Everett, 1-4pm all Bishops Locations.
Note: Bishops will be treating growers to a smooth-as-a-baby's-bottom shave (also known as a 'gentleman's shave') as part of your ceremonious mustache beginnings. Details to follow...
November 13: Clean Shave Day inagural checkpoint will be held at Life Of Riley, 300 NW 10th Ave. Come with a smooth face, or do it when you get home.
November 20: Checkpoint 1 at East Burn, 1800 E. Burnside
November 27: Thanksgiving day- We will not be meeting this week, but it is a good day to solicit donations from whomever you share dinner with.

December 11: Checkpoint 3 at Slabtown, 1033 NW 16th Ave
December 18: ‘Stache Bash at Holocene, 1001 SE Morrison (time TBA)
We, the organizers, reserve the right to change venues if necessary, hold friendly competitions at checkpoints, to announce and gesticulate, to motivate you fellow growers and, lastly, to act as a sounding board for any conflicts (inner, or otherwise).
Your sisters in ‘stache,
Chrissy and Sarah
