-The BloodCenter of Wisconsin is hosting a blood drive at Memorial Medical Center on Thursday.Vicki Bohman, Community Recruiter, at the BloodCenter talked about when the blood drive is.
Vicki said, "We are going to be at the hospital in Neillsville on Thursday, April 17th. We will be open at 11 in the morning and we will be taking donors until 4 in the afternoon. We are in a new location. We're off of Ferguson Street and it is in the basement portion of the hospital. It's called the rec room. If you'd like to donate blood or you'd like to make an appointment you can give the BloodCenter a call. Our toll free number is 1-888-310-7555. It will take about an hour to donate and you should bring a long a driver's license and it's also a good idea to make sure you've eaten a good breakfast or lunch before coming in and that you're well hydrated."
The BloodCenter has a special promotion going on for those that donate on Thursday.
Vicki said, "We're doing a special promotion at this blood drive as a way to thank our loyal donors and also a way to help replenish the local blood supply. So anybody who comes in to donate, on April 17th at the hospital, will receive a free water park ticket to Mt. Olympus. That is in Wisconsin Dells. The promotion is good for up to 4 people on the ticket. It will be valid for May 24th to July 2nd. You can go to the water park at anytime between May 24th and July 2nd."
Once again, the Blood Drive is Thursday, April 17th from 11am to 4pm.
