Twenty employees from CAA Manitoba shaved their heads Thursday night in solidarity to raise money for the Canadian Cancer Society.
The fundraiser was in support of the Society’s annual Dragon Boat Festival from September 9 to 11, 2011.
More than $14,000 was raised during the event.
Kudos to those who braved the shave for a great cause.
CAA Manitoba is also reminding motorists this weekend to slow down and move over while approaching tow trucks working on the side of the road.
“May long weekend kicks off a busy cottage season in Manitoba,” said CAA spokesperson Liz Peters. “That means more cars on the roads, and more break downs too.”
