LOCKS OF LOVE - SPONSORED BY SAFE AND SOUND YOUTH TRANSPORTATION - 2008

Hello there!

It is time again for the Lock of Love fundraiser! This year it will be held August 23rd, from 4pm-12 mid at Spectacular Events center in Bangor, Maine.

Safe and Sound Youth Transportation, Inc., is sponsoring and coordinating the event again, with Spectacular Events donating all of the food, and Robin Lozier of Safe and Sound, and Spectacular Events coordinating the HUGE silent auction! She has been instrumental in ensuring the success of this years event! Doors open at 4pm, with a first come, first served sign up sheet for haircuts. We will be closing and awarding all the silent auction items at 8pm, and will enjoy the DJ entertainment, as well as other random prize drawings throughout the evening. A 50/50 raffle will also be available.

Admission to this amazing event is either a Lock of Love ponytail, at least 6 inches, in healthy condition; bring it in, or we will cut it for you! (10+ is optimal); your gift of time donated to volunteering at the event, or a $10.00 per person donation, with all proceeds going to Locks of Love. These funds will assist with the cost of processing the hair that creates the hairpieces for children suffering from hair loss due to illness or disease.

Last years event garnered 240 Locks of Love, and $3200. that were sent to the Locks of Love Headquarters in Florida.

Pretty amazing...Let's do it again!

Please come to our event, and tell your friends and family. We will accept any monetary donation made out to: Locks of Love, to my address below, and I will forward your donation!

P.S. We need some more hairdressers. Please allow for 2 hours (maximum shift!) We are hoping for at least 16 helpers to keep things moving!

Thank you in advance for your continued support!
