At the end of the 2009 year just a little over $10,000 was raised for The St. Baldricks Foundation. Money was contributed by sponsors and teams of the 2009 Stick it to Cancer Tournaments held in Cary, NC. Numerous individuals and teams made generous contributions to make 2009 a very successful year for Stick it to Cancer.
We want to thank everyone for their participation in both Stick it to Cancer tournaments. The final numbers will be posted shortly. But for now here is a video of one very supportive coach shaving his head at the May 9th event. If you have video or photos from either event and would like to share them with everyone please send us an email at: stickittocancer@stickittocancer.org
The May 9th tournament info is updated and current as of May 5th. Any updates and all details can be found here
Thank you to all the organizations, volunteers and sponsors for making this event possible! And for the best haircut around visit: Salon Blu, the official 2009 Stick it to Cancer hair company.
Almost 2,000 was raised in on the spot head shavings alone. Including the famous Rick Wooten, who raised close to 300 in 15 minutes for all of us to see his head shaved. Great sport!
Everything went very well and it was a great warm up for May 9th…. The BEAST of a tourney.
All of the numbers will be crunched after May 9th and we will announce the final number that combines both tournaments. Get ready Lacrosse fans… we are going to end up with the number that STICKS It To Cancer!
Thank you to all the 2nd- 6th graders that played ball all day in the heat. Thank you to the coaches and all the organizations in attendance. And thank you to all the officials who stood tall on all the fields ALL DAY LONG!
On a side note -
Over the years something always happens that will stick with you forever. Well, today wenhad one of those moments. A young boy walked up to the St. Baldrick’s Foundation table and asked for an envelope. He proceeded to pour in a collection of quarters, nickles and dimes. It was everything he had in his pockets. He then asked ‘Is this enough?’ Well young man… that is more than enough!
This is what it is all about! STICK it to Cancer!
Thanks again to all those who came out today, see you on the 9th!
