Monticello Blood Drive a Roaring Success

Dear Editor,
First of all, in case I forget, Happy Holidays to everyone!
Thank you to everyone who made our Red Cross Blood Drive on the 16th of October a roaring success. We started the day with an almost full schedule. It wasn’t a beautiful day, but everyone was happy to be out and about. The nurses were kind and efficient and they worked hard to keep everything on schedule. It was delightful to be a part of the action.
Forty-three people registered as donors, with one first-time donor: Ellen C. At the end of the day, forty-two pints of blood were collected.
