Upcoming blood drives at Lowe’s in St. Robert from 11 AM to 3 PM on May 3rd, and Old Kinderhook in Camdenton from 11 AM to 3 PM on May 14th.

As May approaches, the American Red Cross wants to remind eligible donors to help keep the blood supply stable by racing to give blood or platelets in the weeks to come. Donors of all blood types, especially type O blood donors and those giving platelets, are crucial to keeping shelves fully stocked with blood products throughout the month. All who come to donate by May 31st will get a coupon for a free haircut from Sport Clips Haircuts by email. In addition, those who come to give between today and May 19th will be automatically entered for a chance to win a trip for two and a VIP racing experience to the 2024 NASCAR Cup Series and Xfinity Races at Darlington Raceway Labor Day weekend. This includes entry to the Sport Clips racetrack hospitality tent and a $1,000 gift card. Upcoming blood drives in the area include a drive at Lowe’s in St. Robert from 11 AM to 3 PM on May 3rd, and at Old Kinderhook in Camdenton from 11 AM to 3 PM on May 14th.
