Meet 'n Greet Re-Cap!!

We were quite pleased to see some of your shining faces at Red Flag last night for our little Meet 'n Greet. For those of you who missed out, we'll re-cap:

We exchanged mustache war stories with M4K vets who are back to grow with us once more, we did some grade-A, high-class Grower recruiting at the bar, discussed the logistics of growing mustaches for charity, enjoyed a spotlight visit from a KOIN cameraman, and drank some beers. Some of us even ran down the street to Bishops to get our Hot Shave on. Big night!

Oh yeah, and we had some fun with our camera:

We can't wait to see you next week for more mustache antics at Checkpoint 1 - 7pm at Vendetta (4306 N Williams)!

'Stachely Yours,

Mustache Alert!

Comrades!

We have an exciting update to our 2010 Growing Season Calendar.

Thanks to the good people at Bishops Barbershop, we will now be moving our Meet n Greet up to Thursday, January 28 – and will be handing out free hot shave coupons for the Bishops location of your choice!!

Not only does this give you the opportunity to kick off your sweet ‘stache with a fresh hot shave, but it also gives you one more week to cultivate those glorious, glorious whiskers.

If you know you want to Grow, be sure to stop by Red Flag beginning at 7pm on 1/28 to meet your partners in ‘stache and get your hot shave coupon.

Calling all Mustache Growers!

The Portland chapter of Mustaches for Kids (M4K PDX) is gearing up to launch its third year of raucous facial hair growth for charity – and we want YOU!

We're holding our Meet & Greet on Thursday, February 4 at 7:00pm at Red Flag (344 NE 28^th Ave). If you think you have what it takes to grow a mustache for charity – and compete for the honorable title of Portland’s Sweetest ‘Stache – please stop by! And bring your friends.

The Vitals: M4K is a volunteer-run organization that does good and has fun by growing mustaches for children's charities. Really. This February, volunteer Growers will cultivate sweet mustaches and solicit pledges from friends, family, coworkers, and community members. Kind of like getting pledges to run a marathon – without the exertion, cramping, or dehydration.

We'll meet at local bars on a weekly basis to check in, compare progress, and inspire donations for DonorsChoose.org, a nonprofit organization that funds projects at under served public schools right here in Oregon!

To top it all off, the Growing Season will culminate with the 'Stache Bash – a mustache beauty pageant & talent show that will culminate with the crowning of Portland's Sweetest 'Stache.

What better excuse to grow a furry new friend on your upper lip? Please help spread the word and forward this on to anyone and everyone you know. Do it for the kids!

'Stachely Yours,
