OSU Alumni host
annual blood drive
Blood Donors, on November 10 may think they are at an OSU Football
Tailgate Party. They will be close to the truth as the OSU Alumni
Club of Darke County sponsor their Annual Tailgate Blood Drive from
12:30 to 6:30 at the Greenville Church of the Brethren at 421 Central
Avenue.
Amid game day decorations, Buckeye memorabilia will be given as door
prizes and donors will be offered a large variety of goodies, including
tasty buckeyes after donating, or attempting to donate. The OSU
Alumni Club of Darke County hopes to make this year’s number of
donations a record.
This annual blood always has the feeling of a party as Buckeye
decorations, including a larger than life Brutus, are everywhere. The
tasty buckeyes that are served along with cheese, cookies and juices
are added incentive to those who choose to give toward saving someone’s
life with their donation.
Donors are encouraged to make an appointment for an easy in, easy out
donor experience by scheduling a time on line at www.DonorTime.com, or
call 800,388.GIVE. Donors are required to present photo
identification with full name to donate. Donors must be at least
16 and weigh at least 110 lbs. and be in generally good health.
Sixteen year olds must bring a signed CBC parental consent form with
them.
Plan to be part of the Buckeye spirit, enjoy the tailgate party and
feel good about donating your blood to help someone in need.
