Marinators Club MovemberOctober 31st to December 1st The Marinators Club is proud to announce participation in Movember. Movember the month formally known as November is a charity event held during November each year. What is Movember?At the start of Movember guys register with a clean shaven face. The Movember participants known as Mo Bros then have the remainder of the month to grow and groom their moustache and along the way raise as much money and awareness about male health issues as possible. Movember culminates at the end of the month with a "Mo-off" where as well as raising money and awareness about male health issues we will announce our Marinators Club Movember Man 2007.
Why?[/color][/u] The answer is because men lack awareness about the very real health issues they face, have a "she'll be right" attitude and are reluctant to see a doctor about an illness or to go for regular medical checks. The aim of Movember is to change these attitudes, make male health fun by putting the Mo back on the face of fashion and in the process raise some serious funds for key male health issues, including: - Depression affects 1 in 6 men...Most don't seek help. Untreated depression is a leading risk factor for suicide.
- Last year in Australia 18,700 men were diagnosed with prostate cancer and more than 2,900 died of prostate cancer - equivalent to the number of women who die from breast cancer annually.
- Men are far less healthy than women. The average life expectancy of males is 5 years less than females.
How?Mo Bros need to start 1 November (Movember) clean shaven and then grow and groom their Mo for the rest of the month If you would like more information on Movember, please ask or visit the website; www.movember.com
If you would like to become a Mo Bro please send me a PM and I will forward registration details to you. Once you have registered ask your friends, family, colleagues, suppliers, customers, anyone to sponsor your Movember efforts.[/b][/size] Further details on Marinators Club Movember and The Shave Off will follow soon........................

Ok guys, the Big Shave off is tomorrow. If you can make it please let us know. If you can't attend the shave off that's fine.
If your interested in participating it's not too late. Please send me a PM and I'll get you started.
Mo growing is from 31st October till 1st December, where there will be prizes for the best mo and the most money raised. Winners will be announced in the post match function after the Mariners V Sydney game.
For those participating, if people can't sponsor you via the Movember website, they can give you the money. All money raised is to be given to myself on 1st December in the Kendall Bar prior to the massive Mariners V Sydney game.
Remember, it's a bit of fun and to raise money for Men's Health....yes that's right.....something that affects you guys. If you think you can't grow a mo, give it a go, you could still win!!
Go forth and be hairy!!
