This year we are having an Old West theme and the tagline "A Good Ole Fashioned Mustache Growing Contest". So work on that Sam Elliot handlebar 'stach, a Doc Holiday pencil-thin, or just a good old classic Burt Reynolds chevron!
We are a group made up largely of area firefighters from Clay Fire, Elkhart, Mishawaka, Notre Dame, Penn Township, South Bend, and other parts of Northern Indiana. In an effort to raise some money and create awareness for a worthy cause last year we had our third annual month long mustache growing contest. We had a total of 132 growers and together we raised a total $6,609.36 to donate to our causes the Hoosier Burn Camp and the Firefighter Cancer Support Network.
We need your help for this year to be bigger and fuzzier than ever!
We are attempting to get as many growers as we can and raise as much money possible for our charities these same charities this year.
The growing begins on February 1st and we will finish the month of growing with the Mustache Bash where you come to flaunt your lip sweater. Again this year, we are going to be hosting the Mustache Bash at Corby's Irish Pub in South Bend.
Here is the official scoop:
THE DETAILS:
There is a $20 entrance fee...
For that $20:
We will be making a generous DONATION of 100% of the profits to The Hoosier Burn Camp and the Firefighter Cancer Support Network.
You will get a wrist band that will get you free beer at Corby's for a good portion of the night and a 2011 Mustache Bash Pint glass to put said beer in.
If your mustache is good (or bad) enough to impress the judges you just might get some very special prizes! (don't worry there are several categories)
Additionally we will be having a small cover charge at the door for the non-growers, and some great raffle prizes all night to raise some additional cash for the charities.
THE RULES:
Mustaches only!!! No mid-life crisis goatees, soul patches, or George Michaels Beards!!!
We will have a "Shave In" January 31st. Place is still to be determined. Come cleanly shaven and celebrate your smooth face with your fellow growers. You can bring your money then, the night of the Bash, or get it to me somehow at Clay Fire Station 1.
THE FINE PRINT:
If you commit....then back out, you must double the entrance fee to buy your way out. A whopping $40 for charity, as well as the personal shame and public ridicule that you will incur.
What if you already have a mustache??? Shave it and start over! Chances are that it will come thicker, and look twice as sweet.
If you are in, well then send us an email to info@themustachebash.com and tell us so. We also need a before photo of you cleanly shaven if you can’t make it to the Shave In on the 31st.
On a side note, you might be asking yourself...."I am a girl!! I can't grow a mustache! Or at least not a good one, so what am I supposed to do at a Mustache Growing Contest?" Well, please don't take it as a personal insult. We know that you made it to our site because we know that you like to party, and we are going to need your support for this 26 day long mustache ride! You should feel honored and we expect to see you at The Mustache Bash. Additionally we also accept donations for our charities, so you can still pay the $20 for the wristband to drink which also gets you the pint glass.
This site is your official home for all things Mustache Bash related. Please check back regularly for Mustache particulars, party updates and details, and our progress along the way.
