While Mo Bros and Mo Sistas nationwide are gathering for food, friends, family, and possibly football this Thanksgiving, our partners at Jameson remind us that it's not too late to Host a Movember event and make this The Best Mo'sgiving Ever.
As long as the gang is all back in town, why not keep the celebrations going all weekend long by gathering in the name of moustaches, men's health, and general merriment? With your moustache-growing journey almost reaching its end, now is the time to get together and make this month-long effort count. Here are a few ideas to bring the party:
Make a Move
Have a lot of turkey and stuffing to work off? Rally the troops for a Move event— you’ll feel revived after taking a breather and can even get creative by turning it into a unique fundraiser. Have an annual turkey-day flag football tradition with your friends? Keep it interesting by putting some fundraising bets on the line. You can take a look at how one Mo Bro is upping the ante for his Move donation challenge here.Gather at the Bar
You’ve Moved, you’ve donated, you’ve changed the face of men’s health, you’ve earned it. A holiday weekend isn’t complete without a cozy gathering of friends at your favorite neighborhood watering hole. Get in the spirit of the season and catch up with your crew around a Jameson cocktail.Throw Your Own Shindig
Feeling homey? Bring a crew of your nearest and dearest over for a Mo party at your own pad. It could even be a good chance to chart your Mo-growing progress and have people vote on their favorite moustache in the group.Ready to try out some new drinks?
