'With less than 2 percent of eligible donors in our region giving blood, our community continues to face shortages,' said Maggie Anderson, Marketing and Recruitment Specialist at RRVBC. 'This blood drive is our way of thanking those who step up to donate and giving them a chance to enjoy a little summer fun in the process.'
Walk-ins are welcome, but participants can also schedule appointments through RRVBC's or by calling (815) 965-8751.
