Rapid, SD – United Blood Services is proud to once again partner with area law enforcement and fire fighters for the 11th annual Guns N Hoses Blood Drive Competition at Rushmore Mall June 21-24.
The Annual Guns N Hoses Blood Drive is a friendly community competition to see who can recruit the most blood donors;
Team Law or Team Fire. The winning team will receive bragging right and a traveling trophy – with the ultimate winners being the patients who will need blood this summer. Donors will receive a free t-shirt and can register to win prizes.
“Summer is typically one of the most difficult times of year to collect enough blood because many regular donors are out of town or on vacation, but the need for blood never goes away,” said Brittany Sigel, United Blood Services. “The partnership we have with law enforcement and fire personnel at this event is critical in assuring a stable blood supply as we head into the heart of summer.
To save time, donors can now fill out their Fast Track Health History Questionnaire online at www.unitedbloodservices.org the day of their donation. To donate blood, volunteers must be at least 16 years old (16 year old donors need a minor donor permit which is available at the blood drive or online) and be in good health.
