As part of the charity event, proceeds were raised by sponsoring such hair-raising events as male leg waxing.
And as he promised family and friends, Neil Pedersen willingly went under the razor. While it may have been wet on the golf course, there wasn't a dry eye in the house as Neil's locks were shed.
