Thirty-eight donors braved the extreme cold and ice and showed up to donate blood Tuesday, January 5 at the Adrian Optimist Building. Thirty-seven good units of blood was collected and two were deferred for minor medical reasons. All in all it was a good day.

The next bloodmobile will be March 9, 2010 and hopefully we will have temperatures above freezing and beginning to see green grass instead of ice. Mark you calendars now and I will see you there.
