Blood Drive Benefiting Nathan Vitek

The  Knights Of Columbus Council 799 is hosting Carter BloodCare for a Blood Drive.  We have reserved capacity for 80 donors and have been told they can accommodate many more if necessary.  Our pre-registrations are slowly coming in, but we would love to get many more registrations.  The blood drive will be at the KC Hall, 10110 Shoreview, Dallas.

Saturday, July 31, 2010
8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

PRE-REGISTRATION LINK:  https://iwebb.carterbloodcare.org/pls/iwebb/aspn?pzp=76203&psp=SPON049570

The pre-registration will ask you for your personal information and you will choose a time, type of blood donation.  You can ask for a reminder, make a comment, etc.  Then be sure and “SAVE” your appointment.

Walk-ins are welcome, but we are requesting every interested Knight to pre-register on the Carter Bloodcare website to reserve space.  Current registrations are low and we have a lot of open time spots to fill.  If you can, please register soon!

If you cannot register, we still encourage you to come and donate blood.  The process is very fast and much appreciated.

Please have a good meal and drink plenty of fluids before your donation.

Another Successful Easter Party

On Sunday the 28th of March, KC 799 held its annual Easter Egg Hunt for kids. The weather was perfect, and the event was held completely outside.  The activities included balloon animals, cookie decorating, seed planting, an egg hunt (of course), and lots of running around and yelling.  The egg hunt used about 1200 eggs.  Jorge Chavez acted as our DJ.

We want to thank our volunteers for pulling off a great event.  And we also want to thank Oliver for providing the food.

Be sure to head over to the “Photos” section to see pictures of this event.

KC 799 Kids’ Easter Party

Come one, come all to the kids’ Easter party on Sunday March 28 at 3:30 at the KC Hall. There will be an Easter egg hunt, balloon animals, cookie decorating, and a special activity from the St. Patrick’s Mothers Club. The party has been a big success in previous years and promises to be an even bigger success this year. Weather permitting, all activities will be outside!

By the way, the KC 799 newsletter reported the start time as 3:00—this is incorrect. We look forward to seeing everyone at 3:30.
