Blood Drive and First Aid Classes

With the Blood Drive, we need 20 people signed up for the folks to come out and pull blood, 20 is the minimum, but more would be better. A 4-5 hour window would be setup to collect blood. Sign up by reply.
Depending on interest, we will work on scheduling classes for CPR and First Aid, again, post a reply as to your level of interest.
Thanks, Morrie

Where are you planning on having this and when?

Re: Blood Drive and First Aid Classes

When and where comes after level of interest, If we do mot get enough people, then the whole thing is kind of a moot point. I'm guessing that the Seniors building would be the best place, I asked Salcha Rescue to see about having it with the Health Fair, but can't really say why they don't want it at the school.

Hi Morrie

guess I left some info out about the Blood Drive. Doing the Blood drive and the health fair at the same time can not work for a simple reason. For the blood drive, you have to be hydrated and have eaten something. For the health fair, most of the tests that are offered, you have to fast! So that is why we can not do both functions at the same time!!! this info comes from the REd Cross.

Re: Blood Drive and First Aid Classes

Thanks for clearing that up Deb.
I will volunteer to give blood, so, that's one down, nineteen to go. So, when the list fills up, we look at when and where. I'll call the blood bank and find out some more info, if we can't get it together out here, I'm sure they will take blood some where.
