________________________________________________________________________

Members of the Sonora Police Department will be participating, for the second consecutive year, in “No Shave November.” The rules of No Shave November are simple; put down your razor for 30 days and donate your monthly hair maintenance expenses to the “Cause.” This is a unique way to grow cancer awareness in our community.

No Shave November is a web based, non-profit organization devoted to “growing” cancer awareness; while raising funds to support cancer prevention, research, education about cancer prevention, as well as aid those fighting the battle. It’s a month long journey in which participants forgo shaving and grooming in order to evoke conversations, while raising cancer awareness.

The goal of No Shave November is to grow awareness by embracing our hair, which many cancer patients lose. You can learn more about this great event by visiting https://no-shave.org/

Staff members of the Sonora Police Department will be allowed to start letting their hair and beards grow beginning Tuesday, 25 October, and will be back to normal on Thursday, 8 December.

The Sonora Police Department encourages everyone out there who is currently fighting the battle to stay strong!!! We also would like to congratulate those of you who have fought and won the battle or are currently in remission. You are all heroes in our eyes and we stand by you!!!
