| Toni/Guy taff load food in the 2012 competition |
Toni/Guy Hairdressing Academy of Shoreline defeated Hallmark Realty of Kirkland in Round I of Hopelink’s Can Madness competitive food drive and will take on Precision Electric Group of Redmond this week. Twelve businesses remain in the fourth annual drive to stock Hopelink’s food banks, but Toni/Guy is the only business in the Shoreline - Lake Forest Park area competing.
The competition is patterned after the famous national spring college basketball tournament, matching businesses in weekly competitions to see which one can bring in the most food. Each week, the winning business in every bracket will advance to the following week.
To ensure that businesses of all sizes are able to compete on a level playing field, the competition uses a unique scoring system: the total pounds of food donated by a business are divided by the total number of employees, resulting in a competitive “score.”
Teams are bracketed together in pairs and one winner from each 2-member bracket advances to the following week.
