FORT LORAMIE — St. Michael Parish in Fort Loramie will support the summer blood supply by hosting the annual Country Fun Blood Drive Tuesday, June 21 from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. in St. Michael’s Hall, 33 Elm St.
Country music fans can win tickets to the Country Concert ’16 Music Festival by registering to donate. Donors are encouraged to schedule an appointment online at www.DonorTime.com or call 1-800-388-GIVE.
Everyone who registers to donate can enter the grand prize drawing for a pair of reserved seat tickets to the 36th annual Country Concert Music Festival, July 7 to 9, in Fort Loramie. There will be several additional drawings for country-themed door prizes, and the Donor Café will feature free ice cream for donors.
Everyone who registers to donate will receive the new “Whale of a Blood Donor” t-shirt featuring a humpback whale and Alaskan mountain range design. Everyone age 18 and older will also be entered in the Community Blood Center “Wild About Alaska Adventure for Two Summer Blood Drive” drawing to win a custom-designed Alaska vacation for two.
