Movember at the Mo-Tel

It's Movember again! That month where moustaches reign supreme all the world over in support of finding a cure for prostate cancer. The humans here have gotten into the spirit and have changed the name to the Sidney Pier Mo-tel and Spa, and the scruffy faces are already beginning to be shown by the Mo bros. Have no idea what I'm going on about? Check this out:

And here's a message from Tim Panagrot, the head Mo bro here at the Pier:

This Movember, the month formerly known as November I’ve decided to donate my face to raising awareness about prostate cancer. My donation and commitment is the growth of a moustache for the entire month of Movember, which I know will generate conversation, controversy and laughter.

I’m doing this because 4,400 men die of prostate cancer in Canada each year and one in six men will be diagnosed during his lifetime. This is a cause that I feel passionately about and I’m asking you to support my efforts by making a donation to Prostate Cancer Canada.

To help, you can either:

* Click this link https://www.movember.com/ca/donate/your-details/team_id/110126 and donate online using your credit card or PayPal account

* Write a cheque payable to Prostate Cancer Canada, referencing my name or Registration Number 23461 and mailing it to: Prostate Cancer Canada, Suite 306 145 Front Street East, Toronto, ON M5A 1E3, Canada.

All donations are tax deductible to the extent permitted by law.

I thought that I could be a Mo-dog and get on board but apparently they aren't so enlightened as to include dogs yet. So I hope you humans will come on out and donate a few bucks here and there to support the cause, and don't forget to come by the Mo-tel plenty of times this month to see the progression of the hairy faces of all the Pier's Mo bros. Some of them are already beginning to complain about itchiness. Ha! Try having your entire body covered in hair, you weak humans!!!

I also heard that there's cheesecake available on the dessert menu in Haro's with the proceeds going to the Movember foundation too. The best part, though, is that the kitchen crew are going to be baking some moustache-shaped cookies for sale in Georgia Cafe with proceeds going to the cause. I hope some of those cookies 'proceed' to make their way down into Lo-Geo where I can have a sample....

Go Mo bros!
