Blood Drive
Tuesday, October 6th, from 12 noon until 6:00 pm, at St. Peter the Fisherman Catholic Church on Dyer Street in Mountain Home. This drive hopes to increase the number of pints of blood donated, by engaging all Veterans’ groups in the area in a friendly competition.
Please remember when donating to name your favorite Vets’ group to give the credit to, as most of us are members of multiple organizations!
The winner of the competition will take custody of a “traveling trophy” until the next “Battle of the Vets” blood drive takes place.
