Esteemed Beards and Mustaches,
The first ever US National Beard and Moustache Championships is just around the corner. It will take place on Saturday, June 5th in Bend, Oregon with $5000 in prizes! There will be four categories for the competition, each with a purse of $1000 and a randomly selected competitor will also receive a $1000 prize, courtesy of Visit Bend!
The Four categories to be represented are:
- Best moustache. Beards are allowed in this category but the contestants will be judged on their moustaches only
- Best partial beard. Includes goatees, van dykes, sideburns, musketeers, etc.
- Best full beard. Styling aids are permitted

Team Montana AKA the Bruigher Beard and Moustache Club plans on attending and showing everyone how it is done out here in the 406. Our two current competitors (it is open to EVERYONE!) are Andy Stobey in the Freestyle and Tyrrell Hibbard in the Best Moustache category! Current plans are to leave the afternoon of Thursday, June 3, camp somewhere in Idaho or Washington (if anyone has a favorite site that direction let us know) so we can arrive in Bend in the early afternoon of Friday. There are some sanctioned activities on Friday such as a Brewery and Pub tour, Mountain Biking, Canoeing, Whitewater Rafting, and Cave Exploring! Don't worry, they all including copious amounts of local microbrews during and after the event.
