The Whisker Club hosted the second North American Beard and Moustache Championship on July 3, 2010. The event took place in Bremerton, Washington. All of those with facial hair from around the world were welcome to compete and the club was happy to welcome people to our beautiful part of the world to celebrate facial hair and the US Independence Day. The photo above was taken from the location of the competition, the Elks Lodge BPOE 1181. The championship followed the rules as seen in the World Beard and Moustache Championships. Those who attended saw what great fun this type of event can be. A wonderful article with great photos was posted by the local newspaper, the Kitsap Sun. |

A nice buffet lunch was provided in a beautiful location. The weather didn't really cooperate but as those of us in the Pacific Northwest say, we have two seasons the rainy season and August. |

The Whisker Club is a not for profit club and will donate $2,000 to what we feel is a very deserving charity. The Washington Veterans Home at Retsil has added a homeless shelter (Building 9) and the club is proud to be able to help the veterans of the United States military. Thanks to Rod littlewood for his efforts in prompting additional donations!
