Good morning Lattice and LEAP families and staff,

As many of you know, over the last few years, Marcos Flores, owner of The Gentlemen's Barbershop, in Windsor, has organized a team of his staff to come to Lattice to provide free haircuts to our students, in an environment that our students are comfortable and familiar with. This event, the past two years, has been a huge success for many of our students who typically have difficulty going into the community to get their hair cut. Marcos and his team volunteer their time and are always extremely patient with our students and their needs.

The Gentlemen's Barbershop has been nominated, this year, in the Press Democrat's "Best of Sonoma County 2020" contest. Please show your support and appreciation for Marcos and his staff by voting for their business, at the link below.

We hope to have Marcos and his team back to Lattice when able!
