Editor, The Spotlight;
The blood drive at Town Hall is quickly approaching. This year, our drive will be held on Monday, September 14 from 1:00 – 6:00 p.m. in the Town Hall Auditorium. As an added bonus, all presenting donors will receive an e-mail coupon for a free haircut AND a coupon towards Turkey Hill Gelato!
There is an urgent need for donors with types O negative, B negative, and A negative; eligible donors with these blood types will have the opportunity to give regular or double red donations at the drive. Donors with type AB are desperately needed to help restock the plasma supply.
You may sign up for an appointment by contacting Elizabeth Mosier at 439-4955, extension 1176 or online at www.redcrossblood.org/rcbmobile/drive/chooseDonationTime.jsp A single blood donation may help up to three different people!
Please take an hour of your time and offer to donate blood. Being potentially uncomfortable for the 4-10 minutes of actual donation time is so small when compared to the pain endured by those who will receive your blood. Depending on your blood type, your donation will be in another person within 4-7 days so the need is real and unending.
We hope to see you on the fourteenth!
Susan Alexander
