October 1, 2019

Lincoln Correctional Center's Corporal Card and Case Manager Sherwood are the two lucky contestants who were selected by their teammates to Raise It To Shave It in an effort to raise money for Nebraska's United Way.

Corporal Card says he's had his beard for two and a half years now.
