March is an odd numbered month and the 3rd Tuesday is Tuesday, March 18,
2025 so that is the the date for the next Blood Drive and dinner trip.
The Red Cross says it is experiencing an accute blood shortage (that
seems to be the permanent state of things, or at least it has been going
on so long it feels that way). Please make the time to donate at a time
and place that is convenient for you even if you can't join me.
The details:
Who: Hopefully, you. Family and friends welcome.
What: Blood donation followed by Dinner Trip
When: March 18, 2025
Where: American Legion Hall, 162 Winn Street, Burlington, MA
Why: Because it saves lives.
How:
To Make an appointment to donate call 1-800-GIVE-LIFE or go on line at
http://www.redcrossblood.org/. As of this evening, there were a lot of
appointments still available. If you don't see an available appointment,
check back since some people cancel. Also, sometimes, you can get an
appointment by calling when none appear to be available on the website.
It's unclear if they have started allowing walk-ins again, it might
depend on how busy they are.
The blood mobile is open from 1:30pm - 7:00 pm. The last appointment
time appears to be 6:30 these days.
Please join us for dinner even if you can't donate.You can either meet
us at the American Legion or I can text you the dinner location once
we've decided on it.
If you are interested in coming, but need a ride, let me know.
Please RSVP so I know who to expect. Send RSVPs by email to
ccrazy@panix.com or text message to 857-928-3118.
