The Salem Community Blood Drive is set for noon to five Wednesday at the Salem Community Activity Center.
This is one of the blood drives where everyone presenting to give blood will receive a commemorative St. Louis Cardinals Blood Drive T-Shirt. All those presenting to give blood will be able to sign-up to win two free Holiday World Tickets from WJBD and WSIQ as well as $100 from the Salem Lions Club.
In addition, all blood donors between June 1st and 30th are automatically entered for a chance to win a VIP trip to Graceland, including a three-night stay at the Guest House, a custom-wrapped Gibson Epiphone guitar, and more. The Red Cross will also send each donor a $5 e-gift card to a merchant of their choice.
Salem IGA is providing sandwiches and the Red Cross will have other snacks.
You are encouraged to register ahead of time by visiting RedCrossBlood.org and enter: Salem Activities to schedule an appointment.
Everyone is encouraged to give blood and help with the current national shortage of blood.
