My new look . . . .


As I blogged about last week, my friend Rob Nowakowski and his colleagues from the Barrow County Fire Department have gotten together to raise money for the St. Baldrick's Foundation and are going to have their heads shaved coming up this Thursday. Well, the more he talked about it, the more I started thinking about it and thinking "why not?" So, this Thursday, I'll be joining my brothers and having my head shaved too! I've had more than one person ask me why I would choose to do something so "radical". I tell them that I don't see it as radical . . . I see it as a neat way to raise funds for a worthy cause and, at the same time, to show support for kids who didn't have a choice . . .their hair lost to cancer and/or the resulting treatments.

I hope you'll agree with me that it's a worthy cause and that you'll join me in supporting this worthy cause:

Will you help? Please?

Please support my husband, Rob Nowakowski, at www.stbaldricks.org and help him raise money for kids who are or have had to fight cancer. Rob will be shaving his head on MARCH 17, 2011 AT LOCOS IN WINDER, GA. If you have questions please message me and I will help you walk through the donation page!

Rob and Karen Nowakowski
Rob and Karen Nowakowski share a common passion and that's protecting life and property -- they are both firefighters. But, that passion doesn't end when their shift(s) end, as evidenced by the message above that Karen posted on her Facebook page. On Thursday, March 17, 2011, Rob will shave his head to benefit stbalricks.org. Unfortunately shaving his head in and off itself doesn't fight cancer (that's to show support for the kids who have lost their hair), fighting it requires donations for research, etc. I hope that, after reading this, you'll be moved to head to the stbaldrick's site (pun intended) and donate how ever much you can to this worthy cause!

Directions to Locos:

Until next time . . .
