DISPATCH Peninsula Clarion Autumn is a time for fun and fund raising on the Kenai Peninsula. From Black Tie events, to country western shoot 'em up and scalp 'em events, non-profit organizations show their creativity in showing the community a good time while supporting their community service programs. At the Kenai Chamber of Commerce annual beer and wine tasting event this year, a loyal and generous supporter of most every civic organization in the twin river cities, Scott Hamann of Metal Magic, put his scalp up for a challenge if the Chamber could raise enough money. "Tina asked me if I'd be willing to give up my hair to raise some money for the Chamber. I really support and appreciate the Chamber. It's a great organization and anything I can do to support their efforts on all our behalves, I told her sure. If they could raise $5,000, I'd be happy to shave my head bald and donate the hair to Locks of Love for cancer patients," said Hamann.
