What:
If you’ve ever wanted to see what it would be like to shave your head, now is the time. And you can help a great cause while you’re at it. Come to The Commons Bar in downtown San Diego to celebrate the Seventh Annual St. Baldrick’s Shave-a-Thon to support childhood cancer research with an afternoon of fun and exciting activities. A $10 donation gets you in the door, and $20 includes a T-shirt and raffle ticket. All proceeds benefit St. Baldrick’s Foundation. And, if you’re brave enough, make your dome aerodynamic to show support and solidarity for the brave children who face cancer every day. Last year the event collected $35,000, and $50,000 is this year’s goal. Can you help them reach it?

The answer is obvious at Quartyard, an urban park built out of repurposed containers in the East Village neighborhood of downtown San Diego: You turn them into a coffee shop, restaurant, dog park, beer garden, music venue, and home for a rotating assortment of food trucks.
