Ron's Story: A Personal Journey - From Inspiration to Action
"In 2006 while I was serving on the BC Children's Hospital's Board of Governors, my sons and I visited the Oncology ward. We left together inspired to do something for the kids and collectively as a family. We decided that we would grow our hair, shave our heads and raise funds to support CMN, which we did on stage at our RE/MAX Western Canada Conference in Feb of 2009.
When the event took place, several colleagues and friends spontaneously joined us in getting shaved. I had never had particularly long hair before that, but I liked it! More recently in the fall of 2019, I decided I wanted to grow my hair long again! It wasn't with the intention of shaving it this time, but over time friends kept asking, "when are you going to shave it Ron?"
A New Goal: Breaking World Records
Inspired by good friends, RE/MAX colleagues and fellow CMN supporters Bruce Johnson and Leo Bruneau, I had an idea. To quote our co-founder Dave Liniger, "One log makes a lousy fire!" I Googled and found the world record for simultaneous head shaves was set in 2016 by 329 Calgary Firefighters. I thought to myself, we can beat that!
We are asking our community of RE/MAX colleagues, staff, family and friends to please join us in Las Vegas at R4 on Tuesday, March 26th after the RE/MAX CMN Auction in achieving a monumental fundraising goal for local children's hospitals in Canada and the U.S. all while attempting to set a new world record for simultaneous head shaves. And for those who don't want to get their head shaved, join us as a fundraiser. Our target is 400+ Shavees each fundraising $2,500 or more and cumulatively $1 Million Dollars in honour of the 12 million kids treated by Children's Miracle Network Hospitals each year.
