Blood drive organizer

The Chinook community will be hosting a blood drive with the American Red Cross Tuesday, May 11, from noon to 6 p.m. at Wallner Hall, 330 Ohio in Chinook

Wallner Hall sits to the west of the Methodist Church. It’s entrance is on Fourth Street.

Appointments are highly encouraged by the American Red Cross. You can go on-line at redcrossblood.org or call 1-800-733-2767 — 1-800-REDCROSS — to schedule an appointment.

Walk-ins are welcome, however available appointment slots for walk-ins are limited so making an appointment will ensure you will be able to donate.

Parental consents for those 16 or 17 years of age can be picked up at the high school office any time before the drive, as well as at the registration table at Wallner Hall the day of the drive.

Masks are required, social distancing will be encouraged and temperature-taking and hand sanitizing will take place at the front door.  

We are looking forward to seeing you at Wallner Hall in Chinook on May 11th, 2021.

Thank you in advance for your life-giving gift.
