All hail King Joel!  Look upon his Mustache, and tremble!  There will be more recap of 'Stache Bash 2007 later, but for now know that almost 200 people showed up at the Montauk Club to see 60 of our volunteer Growers battle for supremacy.  It was so sweet.

Sadly, this means that Mustaches for Kids is over . . . for now.  But if you missed us, it's still not too late to donate!  There's no time limit on Mustache-themed philanthropy!  Donate to the NYC teacher project of your choice here, or simply click the M4K PayPal link here.  You can also always send a paper check here.  Remember, it's all for a good cause!

Growers, if you haven't yet, get those checks into an official M4K representative ASAP!  M4K runs like a well-oiled machine.  Don't be the Mustache that slows up the works for everybody.

Finally, M4K would like to extend some special thanks to the people who made this unprecedented 'Stache Bash possible:

• Simon Free and Nylon Technology -- Who continue to provide us with generous web development services and don't flinch when we write them emails containing sentences like, "Check that 'mustache name' correctly generates a url for the grower's MyStache page."
• Mindy Duhlberg and Quist Industries -- Who manage to screen print sweet t-shirts in record time and don't even yell at us when we ask them to be boxed and shipped to twelve different M4K chapters across the country.
• Matt Collins -- Who came up with a totally sweet t-shirt design, that one Grower called 'an instant classic.'
• Aaron Hermann and the Montauk Club -- Who allow us to take over their beautiful Park Slope facility for our Stache Bash.
• McClure's Pickles -- Who generously donated prizes for our three finalists and provided snacks for everyone in attendance last Saturday.
• Our Stache Bash volunteers and judges -- Who made sure the evening ran as smoothly as possible.
• Our past champions Andy S., Ali K., and Todd T. --  Whose enthusiasm for Mustaches and respect for their place in M4K history motivates them to help us in many ways.
