I'm relatively new to the Island (May 2017), just curious if anyone is participating in Movember or has a local team?

I'm a five year MoBro, but no one else seems to know much about it.

I had to look it up because I was curious! It looks like MoBro is a year round thing in the Virgin Islands, as beards have been the "thing" for a year or two now. Seems every other guy has a beard, especially after the hurricanes. One less thing to use water for, I guess.

I grew a wicked 'stash over the 4 day weekend I took... (ok, I didn't shave at all, so it was more of a whole face thing).

that's the best I could do.

We just call the "Fall no-shaving" thing here in Arkansas...deer season! Yep, still off island, but, husband returned last week. I hope to get back, after two eye surgeries in Dec, sometime in January. I hate it here, well, except for eating all the deer I want. That's a bonus!

I've been seeing him on the west end, great to have him back; I might rope him into helping us clear trails this sunday... he didn't participate in MOVEMBER... haha

I guess I participated without really knowing it. Is it just for mustaches or do beards count too? I may have to join the ranks of the MoBros next year. Seems like a good cause to back.

Mobro? 🤣 That's a new one to me. I guess I accidentally joined the cause last Nov. because that's when I started growing the beard.
