Get your hair cut for a good cause by Redd Harris on Sunday, August 18, from 2 to 5 p.m. in the Hays Insurance parking lot. Donations should be $10 or more per cut, and all proceeds go to Ada's BOOTS for Bulldogs.

Simplicity is The BOOTS' strength. It can be put in place on a classroom door at a moment’s notice by anyone of any age.
