The Sixth Annual Purple Cow Lip-Synching Competition—a fundraiser for the True Life Fund— will take place Wednesday, February 13, at Hickman High School (1104 N. Providence Rd., Columbia, MO 65203) from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Students will compete against teachers in an evening of unforgettable performances. In the rich and varied history of the Purple Cow competition at Hickman, teacher groups have won three times and student groups have won twice. Who will prosper this year?

The nitty-gritty:

– Admission to the competition is $5.

– Doors open at 6 p.m. and the event takes place in the Hickman auditorium.

– Profits go to the True Life Fund recipients, Reporters Instructed in Saving Colleagues (RISC) and the Milton Margai School for the Blind in Sierra Leone, organizations affiliated with this year’s True Life film, Sebastian Junger’s Which Way is the Front Line From Here? The Life & Time of Tim Hetherington.
