Ada's latest news

Lots of donors

Posted by Fred Steiner on Tuesday, March 10, 2015

The Red Cross bloodmobile surpassed its goal of 29 units, with the help of Curtis Engelhardt (pictured). Thirty-two units were given by individuals with an hour to go before "closing up shop" for the day. The "five o'clock rush" had begun. All four beds were in use. It takes about an hour to give blood. Community Health Professionals hosted the visit. The Junior Civic League provided sandwiches, cookies, and drinks to the donors afterwards. Various clubs in town provide these items for each bloodmobile visit. The bloodmobile visits Ada every two months. Next visit is 11:30 a.m.
