2012+Fundraiser+Memories


 * 2012 Total Pledged Amount: TOTAL $831**

The Shave Request with the highest donation amount will win. The scraggly beard will be shaved into the winning design on the evening of Dec. 2nd. It will be worn all day on December 3rd.
 * 1) Batstache - $322 - what more can you say...this is pretty sweet! This version might be better. I'd be more than willing to try it.
 * 2) [[file:halo_beard.jpg|Halo Beard]] - $228 - I'm willing to do this even though it involves more than my beard. I will be able to say I'm angelic. Here's another stellar example of this fine beard.
 * 3) No Shave Beard / Shave Head - $70 - well, this year is just pushing the envelope. I'll gladly do this, however, we should all know what it will look like. I wish I could say I would look as good as this, but I'll more likely look like this.
 * 4) Kevin Beard - $56 - I'll have to shave my name...Kevin...into my beard. A K and E on one cheek, a V on my chin, and an I and N on the other cheek. This will come in handy if I ever forget my name.
 * 5) Balbo - $50 - I really like this look!! A late entry...see below for the animated version.
 * 6) Shape of Lips Beard - $30 - I would have to shave the beard into the shape of lips. So I guess this will look like I just have a big pair of hair lips. This is so original that there is no example!!
 * 7) [[file:noshavenovember/11_28_12.JPG|Full Beard]] - $30 - now we're talking. This will require no extra work. And we all know how good this already looks!
 * 8) Franz Josef - $30 - you can see this below, but here is a more modern version.
 * 9) SF Giants Logo Beard - $10 - Jacob Muller wants a picture with it too.
 * 10) Half Beard - $5 - I will say this will not take a lot of time to shave!

Ahhh...No-Shave November 2012, I remember it like it was yesterday. Lots of interesting beards this year - the oddest was the Halo Beard. People had a love/hate relationship with this look, and to be honest, I am thankful for that. Almost everyone liked the Batstache, thus its comfortable victory.

I truly thought the "Shape of Lips Beard" was unique and I hope it will make a comeback next year.

Thanks to everyone who participated....here are the pictures:

These were taken at the Truckee Donner Lodge. Moira, Claire and I had just returned from a day of fun in the snow. Thanks to Moira for the awesome photography with my iTouch.

Wow. I look gross. Nothing like a beard to help accent all of that extra weight we associate with the holidays. At least I look happy.
