Tri-Village
Rescue sponsors blood drive
A deluxe Hawaii vacation is up for grabs at the Tri-Village Rescue
Services blood drive Saturday, June 13 from 8 a.m. to 12 noon in the
conference center, 320 North Main St., New Madison. Everyone who
registers to donate will receive a free “Blood Donor Board Meeting”
surfboard t-shirt and everyone age 18 and older will also be entered in
the Community Blood Center (CBC) “Get on Board – Give Blood Summer
Blood Drive” drawing to win an expense-paid Hawaii vacation for
two. Donors are encouraged to schedule an appointment online at
www.DonorTime.com.
The grand prize includes air travel and deluxe accommodations for eight
nights at two island locations. All taxes, fees and meals are
included. The vacation package also includes pre-paid activities
and sight-seeing excursions, plus all ground transportation.
Everyone age 18 and older who registers to donate with CBC from May 4
through Aug. 28 will be automatically entered in the “Get on Board –
Give Blood Summer Blood Drive” drawing. REACH magazine is the
media sponsor. Eligible donors can enter the drawing a second time when
they register for a second donation during the blood drive period.
Official rules are available at www.givingblood.org.
Anyone who registers to donate Monday, May 4 through Saturday, June 13
at any CBC Donor Center and most CBC mobile blood drives will receive a
special-edition, Hawaiian surf board design “Blood Donor Board Meeting”
t-shirt. The orange t-shirt features palm trees and a blue
surfboard with a “Donate every 56 days” inscription.
Maintaining the blood supply can be challenging during summer months
due to vacation travel and other changes in schedules. If you
have to miss an appointment, CBC encourages you to reschedule when you
are able. We especially encourage the continued support of type O
whole blood donors and type A/B platelet and plasma donors.
