General George A. Custer
Flamboyant Commander

Custer wore his hair in long glistening ringlets liberally sprinkled with cinnamon-scented hair oil.

Rules

  1. Gentlemen only.

  2. Beard growing will commence on Monday, 1 January, 2008.

  3. How you choose to sculpt your beard is your decision entirely - Mutton Chops, the Donegal, a van Dyke? - you decide. A prize will be given to the beard judged the most creative.

  4. A shaving ceremony will take place on Friday, 29 February, 2008 at a venue to be determined. We ask that you maintain your beard at least until then.

  5. Please keep a photographic record of your progress. We ask that you take your photographs on Mondays and forward them to where we will upload them to the participants gallery.

  6. Enjoy.
