This Thursday marks Shaving Day, the official beginning of the Mustaches for Kids DC 2011 Growing Season.  

You can mark this momentous occasion on your own, but it's much better if you celebrate with friends and fellow growers (a.k.a. future friends).  

We invite you to our Shaving Day get-together at Rhino Bar and Pumphouse, 3295 M Street NW, Washington, DC 20007.   We'll be upstairs, and you can show up clean shaven, or shave once you get there.  We'll have some Bic razors, but we recommend your bring your own gear.  And based on previous events, we recommend that you don't show up with a Mountain Man beard, or your skin will likely be paying for it the next day.  

Rhino -- whose bartenders will all be participating in this year's growing season, will also be offering specials on drinks ($8 pitchers, $2.75 Coronas, and $4 Captain Morgan drinks) and 25 cent wings!

RSVP on Facebook to let us know you're coming, and share the invite with your friends!

If the deals and shaving are not enticement enough, you could also win this poster:

Mustaches for Kids DC 2011 won't officially kick off until Shaving Day on November 10th, but we're holding a "Mustache Meet and Greet" this Thursday, 11/3, at Rhino Bar and Pumphouse (3295 M Street NW, in Georgetown).

The Meet-and-Greet is a great chance for returning growers to catch up on your bare-lipped adventures over the past 11 months, and for potential new growers to ask any questions you might have before embarking on this manly quest.

If the chance to see fellow stache-aholics isn't enough, they're offering $8 pitchers, $4 Captain Morgan Drinks, $2.75 Coronas, 25 cent wings, and 10% off the food tab of any M4KDC grower!

 We hope to see you there, and if you already know you'll be growing a sweet 'stache this year, please Register Today!
