Our good friend and fellow AMS Official, Scott Pauley, has been involved
with an organization that focuses on men’s health, including raising money for
prostate cancer and testicular cancer research to name two. The name of the
organization is the Movember Foundation. They’ve found a way to have fun while
doing good. We figured, why not create our own team of AMS Officials and
Coaches…
Allegheny
Mountain Men of Movember
In the month of
November, you may see some of your fellow AMS Officials and Coaches sporting
mustaches of various shapes and sizes. In support of men's health initiatives,
this group of guys have joined the Movember movement and formed their own team,
called the Allegheny Mountain Men of Movember. For the Month of Movember we
will be busy sprouting hair on our upper lips to build awareness about men's
health, raise funds for a good cause, and also have a bit of fun teasing each
other on deck during our November swim meets. We're sure many of your family and friends would love to support you in this fun endeavor.
We invite all AMS
Officials and Coaches to the team. Just go to the link below to sign up. If you
don’t want to sport a mustache but want to make a donation to the team, you can
do that, as well. If you just want to poke fun at us on deck during Movember, that's OK, too.
Stay tuned for ways
our Mo-sista officials can become involved too, by sending permission slips to
our male officials, and by donating to our team.
This should be a lot
of fun and will allow us to do some good at the same time!
By the way, in my nearly 58 years (my birthday is in Movember), I have never sported a mustache. I have no doubt that I will look ridiculous. My wife is not very happy about the impending mustache. Oh well!
