April 24, 2006
We have our 18th head shave participant, who is also our eldest!  Charlie FIELDING, an 87 yr old
World War II veteran, has advised that for a mere $200 he will shave his head with the rest of us!
The catch?  Charlie is not actively seeking pledges, nor does he even have a pledge sheet.  All pledges
for Charlie must be made either to Cst. PEYTON at the Hanna RCMP Detachment OR to Charlie
during the event day at The Legion.  The addition of Charlie now also means that the age range of
our participants is between 87 years old to 5 years old (Cole OLSEN).
We have also received some fantastic products donations for our silent auction!  Accents has donated
a Collectors "Old-Fashioned Lady's Boot" Lamp.  Bru Agencies has donated a Wooden-Handled
Steak Knife Set With A Case.  The Olds Grizzlies Hockey Club has donated a 25th Anniversary
Olds Grizzles Jersey.  And Venture Fabrication has donated a Giftcard for Two Nights in a Double
Room at The Medicine Hat Lodge (with casino, spa and waterslide park), valued at over $270!
Shawn Puddester has also donated an original, single print professional 11x14 photograph of Peggy's
Cove, Nova Scotia; this is an only version of this photo... so you can own the one & only!

Exlco stepped up to the plate yet again and donated another item to the silent auction!  In addition to
the two leather bags, Exlco had also provide a  large sized Leather Bomber Jacket, valued at over

Tina MOHL, of Main Street Barber, has volunteered her hairstyling services for the early bird head
shave at the Alberta Treasury Branch.  Don't forget that Jeff RAAB & Kevin BURGEMEISTER will

Our youngest participant has joined to get his head shaved with his dad!  Three-year-old Alex GAY,
son of Cst. Pat GAY, is going bald with his father on May 6!  This now makes our age-range of
participants from 3 years old to 87 years old!
We have also decided to split up some of our silent auction items and hold a ticket raffle on eight
items!  You can buy tickets at The Legion during the event, and you can place your tickets in the

$10.  The draw for the raffle items will be held at 5pm at The Legion.  If you would like to take a

auction items, so take another look at them!
We have also received some more product donations for our raffle & silent auction.  Travel World

motorcycle helmet.  And The Brick donated a comfy robe & slippers set, valued at over $100.
