It is with great sentimentality and appreciation that we here at Stache World officially announce the end of Mustache-A-Thon 4.  It was a delight, my friends, an unadulterated delight.

In the end, our intrepid growers raised over $9000 for the inspiring, creative, and TOTALLY FREE educational programming that 826michigan offers to area students.  The final stache weigh-in at Arbor Brewing Company was charged with an atmosphere of respect, camaraderie, and mustachery.  For many, the event marked the poignant end of a noble mustache.  For a dedicated few, it was only the beginning of a lifelong obsession.

Stache World would like to give special recognition to this year’s top fundraisers: Jim Dowling, Dylan Goings, Sarah Johnson, and Andrew Juhl.  Kudos to you!  Kudos to the philanthropic souls who made your mustaches towering bastions of literacy!

So, until next year, Stache World would like to remind you of the MOST IMPORTANT thing about mustaches: they grow on you.
