Friday, June 30, 2023
8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

Blood Drive 06282023

Feeling the post-holiday blues? Patients might be, too, as hospitals often see a drop in the blood supply due to summer celebrations. Your blood donation is especially welcome now and can be a mood boost for you and a patient in need!

As thanks for helping patients, those who come to give by June 30 will get a $10 e-gift card to a merchant of their choice.

*But wait, there’s ANOTHER cool new reason to donate! Come to donate in June and you’ll be entered for a chance to win a backyard theater package, including a projector and screen, smokeless firepit, chairs and more.

Whether you win it all or walk away with a little extra to spend, you can feel good knowing that your one donation may help save more than one life. Will you help us prevent a summer blood shortage?

Margie will also have her delicious muffins and sandwiches in the Canteen!
