Blood Drive

The American Red Cross is coming to North high on March 8th. Those interested in donating blood and meet the requirements are to go to Mrs.Randolph or Mr.Redus for a green sign up sheet that has to be turned in by the end of the day. If interested in donating make sure to eat a high protein breakfast (ex. peanut butter and jelly or peanut butter crackers) that morning and have plenty of water the day before. The requirements are as follows: must weigh at least 110 lb., be 17 years of age, 16 y.o with parent permission, and be in good general health and feeling well. Last years goal was 53 units of blood and they ended up with 59 units. This year the goal is 49 units of blood to be donated to the Red Cross. They are looking forward to at least 90 donors and so far have 120 willing to give blood.
