Blood Drive Benefiting Nathan Vitek

Posted by John Guerra Jr in Events, Volunteer on July 22, 2010

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.
