St Baldrick's 2008


What would you look like bald? You'd look like a hero for kids with cancer!

I answered that question in 2004 when I first participated in St. Baldrick's event and shaved off ten inches of hair. I have been shaving my head ever since. This year, I participated in my fifth St. Baldrick's event and continue to show my support for children with cancer and raise money for cancer research.

I joined a group of shavees, barbers, and volunteers and participated in the St. Baldrick's event at Ned Devine's in Centreville, VA on Sunday, March 16th. Since I was still shaving my head daily, I participated as the event photographer.

I tried to recognize as many of the shavees as I could. I apologize if I missed someone or put the wrong name on the picture. Send me an email if you want an original copy of a photo.
