Grant Shay, Event Coordinator for the Annual St. Baldrick's event in Pueblo West, was told by Foundation and government officlals today that they will NOT allow the event to take place as scheduled on Saturday, March 14 (tomorrow). IThe 9th Annual event is postponed until further notice due to the seriousness of the Coronavirus situation in the United States.
Additional information will be sent out as it becomes available. Once again, I am very sorry. I know we were all looking very forward to it. The mass panic over the coronavirus is the reason.
On the bright side, around $20,000 has been raised thus far and we now have a little extra time to keep at it. Thank you for everything you do to help fight kids' cancers!
Sincerely,
Brad Riccillo
SuperteamPCSO Captain
Deputy Brad Riccillo
Pueblo County Sheriff's OfficeHello! My name is Brad Riccillo and I am the Captain of SuperTeam PCSO who are comprised of Deputies who work for the Pueblo County Sheriff's Office. The members of SuperTeam PCSO shave their heads yearly to help raise money for childhood cancer research!
Mission Statement: "Bringing people together through community based events to raise awareness for childhood cancer research".
The members of SuperTeam PCSO organize fundraisers in the Pueblo community in order to raise awareness (and funds) for childhood cancer.
This is my seventh year of participation and this promises to be the biggest to date.
Please visit our Facebook page for updates and news about the events in the community. Oh, and another thing, this is YOUR community, if you have any ideas for fundraisers....please contact me and let's talk!
Did you know that kids' cancers are different from adult cancers? It's true. And childhood cancer research is extremely underfunded. So I decided to do something about it by raising money for cures.
Now I need your help! Will you make a donation? Every dollar makes a difference for the thousands of infants, children, teens, and young adults fighting childhood cancers.
A BIG THANKS to everyone who came out on Sunday, March 8 from 4 p.m.to 8 p.m., to "Eat For Change" at Chipotle (3230 N. Elizabeth Street)! The results are already in so here we go:
So, they require a minimum of $300 in sales before they donate any profit. The total for last night was $271.35
BUT, the fine folks at Chipotle HQ have decided to issue SuperTeam PCSO a check anyway for the 33% which will be $89.55 and that is still awesome!
The friends and supporters SuperTeam has are second to none! Thanks for all you do

Friends and supporters came to Musso's Restaurant to eat delicious food and also give a little all in the name of childhood cancer research. Heroes from the team, Ashley Nellie and her husband Nick Razey and their foreign exchange student, Schiavio helped serve food while Joey Musso and Lisa Musso kept a watchful eye
SuperTeam PCSO will give all monies made to the St. Baldrick's Foundation on Saturday, March 14th at the Head Shaving Event.

Superteam PCSO Captain Brad Riccillo shaves the head of Sergeant Kerrick Meinecke at the Aura SalonKerrick Meinecke has been a member of SuperTeam PCSO since 2017 (from the Shamrock years). Kerrick is also a Sergeant at the Pueblo County Sheriff's Office as well as a husband, father and a man I consider a friend. If that's not enough, Kerrick is an active duty member of the military and will be deployed soon, which will cause him to miss the head shaving event at Jimmy's Tavern in March 14th.
Because of this, Amanda Richardson allowed us to visit Aura Salon on Thursday, Feb., 27, and she gave me special permission to shave his head.
For many reasons this was quite an honor: the meaning behind the shave, the reason for it taking place early, the personal/professional relationship we both share among many others.
So, thank you my friend for the past four years. Stay safe and come home soon so we can plan SuperTeam Cuba 2021.

On Valentine's Day morning (Feb. 14), Deputy Brad Riccillo from the Pueblo County Sheriff's Office and the captain of SuperTeam PCSO, was at the Greater Pueblo Chamber of Commerce and attended the Veterans Committee meeting. This meeting has a number of different organizations as members and one representative from each talks about upcoming programs or services geared toward assistance for those who are or have served our country.
The coordinator, Ava DeHerrera asked me to address the group and let them know about the St. Baldrick's Foundation and the role SuperTeam PCSO plays in raising funds for childhood cancer research.
This was a very special experience and I know everyone in the room learned we all serve a greater purpose and are doing things for others in the community that can't do for themselves at this time. Many thanks to those Veterans, their families and the organizations designed to help them!
So, please consider helping me help those children less fortunate by visiting my page and leaving a gift:

The circumstances were different but the reason remained exactly the same.
