Feel Good About Giving Back by Donating Blood

Many people want to give back to the community, but may not have a lot of time to volunteer. The American Red Cross reminds eligible individuals that in only about an hour, volunteer blood donors can help save lives and feel instant gratification.
Blood is a perishable product that can only come from generous volunteers. By donating blood, individuals can make a difference in the lives of patients in their community and throughout the nation.

June Dairy Days

I’m writing to ask for help regarding the Queen’s Brunch and also the Dairy Dash. This dash is a run/walk that is being set up and a great way to get some exercise. But as these things are being organized for your enjoyment, we need a little help to pull that off! For the Dash, Tracy needs some help with the registration table, some help out on the route, etc. It would be great if you can contact me so that I can pass your name and number on to her if you could lend us a hand that day. High School kids can earn points towards their volunteer quota for next year’s school year.
