By hosting a blood drive, the Dairy Queen in Roscoe is helping save lives in our community.  THE DAIRY QUEEN IS GIVING ALL DONORS A FREE SMALL BLIZZARD.

Come and see all the great classic cars and donate blood to save a life.

One pint of blood may mean a lifetime to someone in need.  In fact, since each blood donation is separated into components, you can actually help save three lives with one donation!  One in three people will need blood in their lifetime.  You never know when it might be you or someone you love who will need blood.

For more information or to schedule an appointment to donate, please call RRVBC toll-free at 1-877-RRVBC-99.  Or visit our website at www.rrvbc.org to self-schedule.

You should be eligible to donate blood, if you are at least 17 years old (16 years old with parental consent), weigh at least 110 pounds and are in general good health.
