YELLOW SPRINGS — The Village of Yellow Springs will sponsor a blood drive from 3-6 p.m. Thursday, June 25 in the Bryan Center gym. Everyone who registers to donate will receive a free “Donor Surf Co.” surfboard T-shirt, and everyone ages 18 and older will also be entered in the Community Blood Center (CBC) “Get on Board – Give Blood Summer Blood Drive” drawing to win an expense-paid Hawaii vacation.

The grand prize includes air travel and deluxe accommodations for eight nights at two island locations. All taxes, fees and meals are included. The vacation package also includes pre-paid activities and sight-seeing excursions, plus all ground transportation.

Everyone age 18 and older who registers to donate with CBC from now through Aug. 28 will be automatically entered in the “Get on Board – Give Blood Summer Blood Drive” drawing. REACH magazine is the media sponsor. Eligible donors can enter the drawing a second time when they register for a second donation during the blood drive period. Official rules are available at www.givingblood.org.

Anyone who registers to donate between June 15 and July 25 at any CBC Donor Center and most CBC mobile blood drives will receive CBC’s second special-edition, Hawaiian surf board design T-shirt. To schedule an appointment, call 800-388-GIVE or go online at www.DonorTime.com.
