Movember closes with a BANG

Mo Bro Mark Twain
I wondered if it would be a "wind down" or a "final push". I wondered if we would ever get to $3,000 this year. Oh, me, of little faith! Huge thanks to all the fearless heroes of The Mo Stashed Hairiers and our wonderful and generous sponsors. On this last day of Movember and the 176th birthday of a great Mo Bro, Mark Twain, (A man who carries a cat by the tail learns something he can learn in no other way,) I am overjoyed to tell you that we have, yet again, broken the three thousand dollar barrier with $3,410 to date. Donations are still accepted until Dec 6th.

Allow me to boast a little about some former members from previous years who have moved on to support friends on other Movember teams or even start their own teams.

Mark McCann 
His team, the Great Canadian Moosetaches, have raised $3,496 so far.


Stephen McCann
Member of the Mustache Riders who have raised $2,366.


Taylor Landry 
Captain of the Free FM Magic Moustache Ride who have raised $1,135.


Lucian Acatrinei
Captain of the M - Team who have raised $140.








Between us all we have raised over $10,000.  Well done, one and all.


Here are some End of Movember pictures of the wonderful 'staches of a number of Mo Stashed Hairiers.

I see Movember as an opportunity to try something bold and new on the upper lip and around the edges.

Chris Fortier
The ladies in my life are going to be happy to see the stache shaved off :)


Michel Boily
The mug shot needs Photoshop or I need rejuvenation.


Andrew Forbes
One final thoughtful pose. A sad day comes tomorrow, my upper lip will be chilly. Farewell my fine furry friend, may you be greeted with open arms at the pearly gates of Moustache Heaven.


Mike Peyvandi
We do it one step at a time till we achieve our goal.


Wayne Hudson

How time flies!

Here is "The Stash"







Goodbye, Mo, until next year
