Local dudes Gabe Ransom and Frick Atkins are getting their long locks and long beards shaved this Saturday (the 27th) to raise funds for the Leigh Volunteer Fire Brigade - click on link to contribute to the Give-a-little page and to see a photo of their hirsute selves before the big cut happening tomorrow at the Leigh Hall.
If you know Frick and Gabe, you'll know them for their glorious beards. They have both been growing their hair for over 20 odd years!
If you frequent Goat Island, Matheson Bay, Pakiri, Whangateau and beyond, then the Leigh Brigade guys and girls are the local First Response Unit who will be helping you and your whānau out and potentially saving your lives, if you have an accident or medical emergency.
Please give generously, every little bit helps. They gals and gals do amazing mahi for our community.
