Shave Off Party
Mark your calendars! This Friday, 11/1, come hang out at EDCF for our second annual ‘Shave Off Party‘ in honor of the start of Movember. Movember is a month of spreading awareness about prostate and testicular awareness. It is also the month that we put on our biggest event, Barbells & Handlebars (11/30).
How do we spread awareness? By growing moustaches over the entire month of November (hence the name Movember), of course. At 7:30pm this Friday, we will be shaving our upper lips to see who can grow the best (or worst) ‘stache by the start of Barbells & Handlebars. There will be prizes up for grabs at the end of the month. So bring your razors and shaving cream of choice and join in on the fun.
Don’t feel left out ladies. You are definitely encouraged to come and hangout, too! Come hold a mirror for one of the guys shaving and enjoy an adult beverage along with your awesome EDCF community!
