Send 'em to the Series Cut-A-Thon

Team up with Bii Hair Salon for a benefit Cut-A-Thon to be held from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. Saturday, August 3 at the salon, 1955 Huntley Road, West Dundee.  The event affords an opportunity to tuck away that bad-hair-day ballcap and step up to the plate for the Illinois District 13 World Series Challenger Team and help "send 'em to the series!"

A haircut from a Bii-certified hair artist will be available for a minimum donation of $25.  Children's "clipper cuts" for $15.  Appointments are suggested and should be made by phone, (847) 428-8821.  Online booking option not available for this event.

One hundred percent of proceeds raised will go to the Challenger Little League World Series Team.  Challenger, a division of Little League, is geared toward children with mental or physical disabilities.  The program offers these children the opportunity to play organized Little League baseball.

The Illinois District 13 Challenger Team; which includes children from Dundee, Carpentersville and Gilberts; has been selected to play in an exhibition game on Saturday, August 24 at the 2013 Little League World Series in Volunteer Stadium; South Williamsport, Pennsylvania.  The 15 area players will represent more than 30,000 Challenger players in more than 900 leagues around the world.

 The goal of Bii Hair Salon is to raise enough funds to cover expenses for an entire family to attend the exhibition game.
