Toss those razors gentlemen and show me your mustache – it’s for a good cause.

Movember, which takes place during the month more commonly referred to as November, is an international charity and awareness drive that raises funds and fosters awareness for men’s health issues, primarily prostate and testicular cancer. “Mo Bros” around the world groom their ‘staches to serve as billboards for the cause, and they look fly as hell while doing so.

So what does this mean here at The Sacramento Press? Well, first, start Movember clean-shaven. Our very own editor-in-chief and captain of the Sac Press ship, Jared Goyette will be facing off with our account-managing guru Randy Balzarano. On Movember 30 we will put their respective mustaches up to a popular vote, and the loser has agreed to stave off shaving for an additional two weeks after the end of the month.

Take heed to record your flourishing facial hair, and let us know – are you going for the handlebar or the toothbrush, or perhaps the chevron a la Tom Selleck? Track your progress and tweet your updates to us using the hashtag #sacpressstache, or post photos to our Facebook wall.

At the end of the month we will highlight our favorite ‘staches, and the winner will have his (or her!) masterpiece featured on the front page of The Sacramento Press for an entire day, in addition to enjoying the warm fuzzy feelings that come from getting goofy for a good cause.

So, are you in? Let us know, then get thee to your bathroom sink. It’s the first of the month, and you’ve gotta start fresh.
