CHIPPEWA FALLS — According to department policy, no employees in the Chippewa County Sheriff’s Office are allowed to grow beards, goatees or lengthy mustaches. “The policy is it has to end at the corner of the lips,” explained Sheriff Jim Kowalczyk. That changes each year for “No Shave November.” Lt. Mark Bauman asked Kowalczyk a year ago to start a fundraiser, where employees pay a fee to participate in the monthlong event. “It brings awareness to men’s cancer issues,” Bauman explained. To participate, men paid $30 to grow a beard, $20 to grow a goatee or $10 to grow an out-of-regulation mustache. Women in the department purchased bracelets so they also could participate in the fundraiser.
