Letter - Thanks to Curling Iron staff - from Bluffton University baseball team
Icon:
The 2012 Bluffton University Baseball team and coaching staff want to share appreciation to the stylists of the Curling Iron in Bluffton.
On Wednesday, Feb. 29, they shut their shop down during the lunch hour to come to campus and help us with our BaseBALD event for St. Baldrick's Foundation.
St. Baldrick's invests in childhood cancer research. Our team raised more than $8,000 for St. Baldrick's and on Feb. 29, we concluded our fundraising and awareness campaign by shaving our heads in support of children who have or have had cancer.
The stylists of the Curling Iron shaved 46 heads during the lunch hour on Feb. 29. In addition to volunteering their time for our event, they also made a monetary donation to our efforts.
We so appreciate their support and enthusiasm of the St. Baldrick's efforts for childhood cancer research. Bluffton is a great community because of the wonderful people who live and work here.
Thanks again!
2012 Bluffton University baseball team and coaching staff
