Buzz Still Felt After Finn McCool's St. Baldrick's Fundraiserby Brad Rhines For those tracking New Orleans’ springtime fashion trends, bald is beautiful. All of the cool kids are rockin’ freshly shorn domes this week, after the St. Baldrick’s Foundation fundraiser at Finn McCool’s on Saturday. While the total is still unofficial, Finn McCool’s raised over $47,000 in online donations before the event even started, and some expect on-site contributions to raise the final tally to nearly $60,000—which is double the organizers’ initial goal—thanks to the help of groups like the Rolling Elvi, the Big Easy Roller Girls, and Kickball of Crescent City. 'It'll All Grow Back': Finn McCool's to Get Out the Clippers for St. Baldrick's Dayby Brad Rhines The fur will be flying at Finn McCool’s this weekend as locals line up to go bald for a cause. Mid-City’s favorite Irish pub will be hosting their third annual St. Baldrick’s Day fundraiser to benefit the St. Baldrick’s Foundation, a charity organization devoted to fighting pediatric cancer. Saturday’s event is truly a community affair, as the Rolling Elvi, the Big Easy Roller Girls, and Kickball of Crescent City, all have teams raising money and shaving heads to show their support. |
