Robert Watkins was crowned 2009 Stache King at the Stache Bash at Manuel’s Tavern this past Friday. His second victory in a row was assured through strong competition in the tug ‘o war, froth capture, karaoke and the dash for cash. His stache persona, Frida Kahlo, won it for me personally. Excellent job Robert!

We’re figuring the grand total raised and we’ll post it here in the next few days. Remember our total from last week? Forget that number. We kicked that number’s stache. Everyone came together during the last week and really pushed us over our goal, so thank you. Stay tuned…

Thanks to everyone who participated and supported Mustache for Kids this growing season. All of us growers really appreciate the support and our charity, CURE Children’s Cancer, does too.

You can find pictures from the party on our Facebook group page. If you have some good ones, upload to the event, it’s open.

Thanks to the many people and businesses that supported us this year too. Your help made it really fun for everyone in involved!
