Roc City Roller Derby hosted a St. Baldrick's event the same day as our bout. Jezibelle N. Hell decided to raise money and participate. She said she shaved her head three times in high school... so, no big deal! But it is a big deal.
The St. Baldrick's Foundation currently funds more in childhood cancer research grants than any organization except the U.S. government. The Foundation coordinates its signature head-shaving events worldwide, where volunteers get bald to stand in solidarity with kids fighting cancer and raise money to support life-saving childhood cancer research. St. Baldrick's events are the largest volunteer-driven fundraising opportunity benefitting pediatric cancer research. - http://www.stbaldricks.org/
Here are some photos related to the shaving event

It's not too late to donate to St. Baldrick's via Jez' page:

No big deal that our photoshoot was also the next weekend. Jezibelle rocked it. At least her hair was easy to "do"!
