North Las Vegas blood drive involves friendly competition between firefighters, police
LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — The Fourth Annual Battle of the Badges Blood Drive is happening today at Aliante Hotel and Casino. The blood drive is a friendly yet meaningful competition between North Las Vegas police officers and firefighters to see who can rally the most blood donations for the Red Cross of Southern Nevada. Racheal Flanigan from the Red Cross explained how the event works: donors can reserve a time online or simply walk in between 9 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. The process takes about an hour, and after donating, participants receive a ticket they can cast in support of either the police or fire department. At the end of the day, the team with the most tickets will be crowned champion! Last year's champion was the North Las Vegas Police Department. Officers Antonio Rivera and Mario Rios shared their plans to defend the title and even hinted at a secret weapon they might unleash later in the day. While they're in it to win it, both discussed how crucial blood donations are, especially as we head into the busy summer months. Fire Chief Joseph Calhoun from the North Las Vegas Fire Department shared his own game plan for victory, pointing out that today's training session at the fire academy could give Team Fire a serious boost in donor numbers. Chief Calhoun also reminded us that donating blood saves lives. 'Whether it's a car accident, surgery, or an unexpected crisis, the need for blood is constant and urgent.' While the police and fire departments are getting ready for their 4th annual Battle of the Badges they wanted to remind us that everyone's working toward the same goal: building up the local blood supply and making a life-saving difference in Southern Nevada.
