FARMINGTON — Last week, Mindy Enman of Hair By Mindy and Becky Rider of Platinum Tanning presented a $2,600 check to the Harold Alfond Center for Cancer Care (HACCC). Mindy also attended the Maine Generals Walk of hope heard in Augusta this year decking out our walkers at the Walk for Hope with pink and purple hair extensions. Hair extensions, community fundraising and prize baskets almost doubled their grand total from last year, bringing their total contribution to the HACCC to $5,072.
