How about helping save a life? The Villages Parrothead Club is teaming up with One Blood and holding a Blood Drive at The Colony Recreation Center on Colony Blvd. So if you have some spare time we'll be there from 9AM to 4PM. Stop by and help us out. There will be handouts and food for all donors. Thanks in advance for your support.

I hope we get a lot of TOTVers there.

Just spoke to them, I won't have a scheduled time because of showing my house so I'll be a "drop by"... See ya there.

I hope you got there, KathieI, in all the rain? Not much of a problem if you live down by Colony but I am up near the Villages High School in Lynnhaven so it was a wet drive. At least, my iron was OK and I got a hamburger, a free red golf ball, a neat T-shirt, and a coupon for a free Chick-fil-A chicken sandwich.

How I will have to wait another 56 days before donating again. Or, donate platelets in a few weeks.

Chuck and I both gave blood today!

Good to hear. I was there around 12:00 P.M. to 1 P.M. and there did not seem to be many people giving blood while it had been raining. A Jimmy Buffet like singer was at the entrance to Colony during that time.

I did not get any Parrothead like goodies.

Yes, I did, Tal, got there around 2:30pm, rain and all. Not many people at that time but I think they did as well as last year, they said. I had a great time, the young man taking my vitals was hysterical. I told him he was raising my BP just by being close to me.. LOL... I love young boys.. hahaha. It was a very easy and delightful experience. I think I might do platelets next time but you have to go to the main office on 441/27. I did get a great Tshirt, a red golf ball and Chik-fil-A coupon.

I always feel so good after donating a pint, makes me feel like I'm doing my share. Sorry I missed you Tal!!

I give blood and feel wonderful that what I give may save someone's life. I could not attend this Blood Drive because it had not been long enough between donating.
