Shave, Brave, Save - Three Ways to Save a Life
The highlight will be three activities that tie into the purpose of this fundraiser:
1. Head shaving – participants will collect pledges and then have their head shaved on the day of the event in support of children who have undergone treatment for cancer.
2. A blood drive – hosted by the BloodCenter of Wisconsin to collect much needed blood for various health care purposes and childhood blood disorders.
3. A bone marrow registry drive – also hosted by the BloodCenter of Wisconsin to raise awareness to the need for marrow donors to help children with various diseases.
Additionally, we will have
• music and other entertainment (such as clowns, Irish Dancers, karate demos, the Mad Scientist a dunk tank and anything else we can come up with)
• Food and Drinks (non-alchoholic)
• Games
• Artwork from current and past patients treated for cancer and other blood disorders
• Raffle/auction – which will include the patient artwork among other donations
• Plus the event will be open to members of the public, without admission charge, so anyone is welcome to join the fun and excitement!
This year's event will take place on Saturday, Sept. 24 from 11 a.m. - 6 p.m. at:
Regner Park
