Johnsons Grateful to Community

Submitted by admin on Wed, 04/29/2020 - 7:52am

Dear Editor,
It is with heartfelt gratitude that we wish to thank and acknowledge the community members who donated at the New Glarus Community Blood Drive on April 10th. You were all very courageous to answer the call to donate during the COVID-19 pandemic. Thank you for your patience as you learned the new protocol. We’d also like to thank those of you who were walk-ins, who were not able to donate due to the new protocol during the pandemic.
