Blood drive slated June 22

By Melinda L. Lucas

A blood drive is scheduled to take place in Albany next Thursday, June 22.

Hendrick Regional Blood Center will be at First Baptist Church from 1:00 until 6:00 p.m.

The first two dates of the 2023 series were moved to Fridays, but as of June, will go back to Thursdays from 1:00 to 6:00 p.m.

Local Kiwanians urge community members to donate blood to help ensure that patients in area hospitals have a supply of blood ready and waiting when an emergency occurs.
