GRAVETTE -- At 7 p.m. on Gravette Day, Aug. 8, on the main stage in Kindley Park, Gravette mayor Kurt Maddox and city recorder and treasurer Mike von Ree have agreed to shave their heads using a standard clipper guard, based on the amount of money raised.
This is a first-ever event designed as a benefit for the Billy V. Hall Senior Activity and Fitness Center. A number 5 clipper will be used if $1,000 is raised, number 4 for a donation of $2,000, number 3 for $3,000 raised, number 2 for a donation of $4,000, number 1 for $5,000 and number 0 for a donation of $6,000.
There are four ways to donate to the fundraiser:
• Visit the Billy V. Hall Senior Activity Center at 1870 Limekiln Road;
• Call center director Mary Kay Kelley (479-787-5950);
• Donate online at GravetteAR.com; or
• Donate in person on Gravette Day at the Kiwanis pancake breakfast and at Kindley Park.
Those wishing to see their city officials get a "real cool" haircut and benefit the local senior activity center should make their donations now.
