Those living in McHenry County new homes know that one of the things that make this location so special is all of the community support from local residents. On Thursday, March 15, a group of community leaders, students and people young and old will again be shaving their heads in support of the fundraising effort to conquer kids’ cancer.

The McHenry Community Shave event is held at West Campus High School as part of this year’s St. Baldrick’s Day in McHenry. Over the past 3 years more than 700 heads have been shaved and over $120,000 has been donated to the St. Baldrick’s Foundation. What an outstanding way to unite children and adults in this wonderful effort.

If you would like to contribute then go to the St. Baldrick’s website. Or, you can attend the event on Thursday, March 15 from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the West Campus Main Gym.  What a great way to support those who have chosen to “Be a sport and cut it short.”

The community of McHenry has many wonderful events such as this which make it a perfect place to build a new home. In addition to our McHenry new homes at Liberty Trails, we also build Richmond new homes in McHenry County at The Trails of Pheasant Ridge. With both exceptional ranch and two-story homes designs available and up to five bedrooms, you’re sure to find the new home of your dreams.
