Blood drive Oct. 8

September 26, 2006

Give the gift of life on Sunday, Oct. 8, from 11:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. at Eagle Village, a residence hall on Georgia Southern University’s campus.

The Office of Volunteer Services, in collaboration with the Savannah Community Blood Bank, will host the drive as part of the ‘Five Points of Life Ride.” The ‘ride” is a group of bicyclists traveling from Ottawa, Canada, to Miami, Fla., to raise awareness of the importance of giving blood.

Participants are invited to bring their families as the event will have free food and games, including bocce ball, croquet, Frisbee and potato sack races.
