...Seabreeze Recreation Center yesterday. Seemed more like a convention than a blood drive.

A few days ago The Villages Daily Sun had an article about the Loud Boys Group's 4th Annual Blood Drive on October 13, 2012. It was a big success with 370 Pints collected. That's quite a lot of needles.

They got one pint from me. And 369 pints from other donors.
