The end of Movember is nigh! After a long month of growing lip sweaters, battling cancer, and goading men into doctor's visits, it's time to throw back some pints and celebrate what we've done!
This event is open to the public, and we invite anyone to come and see some serious 'staches before they go into winter hibernation.
The team is going to assemble at Bull City Burger & Brewery this Thursday, December 1st at 6pm. Once 6:30 rolls around, we'll be taking a moustache-laden group photo, and announcing the final fundraising tallies.
If you have a Facebook account, you can RSVP on the event page. If not, just show up and we'll see you there!
THANK YOU all for your efforts in increasing men's health awareness, and raising crucial funds to help cure cancers that impact men. We are making a difference!
One of the great things about Movember is the sense of comraderie that it creates. There are 40 men on the Durham: City of Moustache team, and we all have different personalities, appearances, backgrounds, passions, and talents. And yet here we are, moustachioed brothers in arms, fighting for the common cause of curing cancer, each contributing in any way that we can.
One such Mo Bro on our team, Adam Sampieri, is a Durham-based singer and songwriter. Adam enlisted his talents and put them toward the cause by writing, performing, and recording a song that will hopefully be an inspiration for Movember participants across the globe.
If you recognize the tune, it is a parody of Fat Bottomed Girls by Queen, which Adam has aptly titled Big Bushy 'Stache. So put your headphones on, rock out to Movember's new anthem, and send some donations Adam's way to help support the cause and show him some appreciation for everything he did to record this!
In other Movember news, today is 'Stache Friday over a Fullsteam. Head on over from 6pm-12am and you can competing in games and feats of strength, such as Growler Extensions, a Keg Cap Accuracy Toss, and Pin The Moustache on Rollie Fingers.
There will be prizes (man and lady versions) for Most Artistic Moustache, Best Beer Foam Moustache, and Best Peach Fuzz (kids only). There will also be a Texas Hold 'Em tournament, and food from Will and Pop's, Chirba Chirba, The Parlour, and pretzels from Café Prost.
10% of all Fullsteam proceeds (and some of the trucks) go toward MOVEMBER!
Totes Codes will be presenting a moustache-themed dance party Fri, Nov 18th at The Pinhook. "Moustachquerade ~ the dance party" invites everyone to don a 'stache, don a mask, don a 'stachemask, or even keep a clean face in protest - as long as you dance!
Featuring BANG!
The Interplanetary DJ Monster, a portion of the proceeds will be donated to our Movember team, Durham: City of Moustache.
So whether you have a giant, real moustache, a giant, fake moustache - or ANYTHING in between... bring it. wear it. shake it. do it.
