Members of the community are invited to our annual American Red Cross Blood Drive in Overture Hall Main Lobby. Appointments are recommended and can be scheduled online.
As a thank you for supporting our blood drive, all presenting donors will be entered into a raffle for a chance to win a pair of tickets to Take 6 on Saturday, April 25.
