New Glarus Brewing Company to Host Red Cross Blood Drive

Many people want to give back to the community but may not have a lot of time to volunteer. In only about an hour, volunteer blood donors can help save lives and feel instant gratification.
The community is invited to give back and help save lives by donating blood on Monday, November 18, 2019, from 11:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., at the New Glarus Brewing Company, 301 Cow Path Lane, New Glarus. The Blood Drive will be held in the south tasting room, and after giving blood donors will receive a free can of Spotted Cow to take home with them.
Blood is a perishable product that can only come from generous volunteers. By donating blood, individuals can make a difference in the lives of patients in their community and throughout the nation.
