2012Wellington Going ‘Bigger, Better and Balder’ for its 15th Anniversary
CORRECTION: EVENT TIME CHANGE
For the first time, students from Wellington’s rival high schools are coming together to buzz off their locks in an effort to fight childhood cancer. On Friday, March 25, 2011, Wellington will host Palm Beach Central High School and Wellington’s Community High School’s Wellington Kids Care event, where male and female students, faculty and alumni will shave their heads to raise money for the Saint Baldrick’s Foundation, a non-profit that supports cancer research. This event will take place from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm at Village Park located at 11700 Pierson Road.
Last year, both schools raised a combined total of more than $100,000, and Palm Beach Central High School hosted the highest-raising event of any school nationwide.
“With involvement from various sponsors around the community and participation from middle and elementary schools, this year’s event is sure to be bigger, better and balder,’” said Palm Beach Central faculty sponsor Don Meyers.
