The last blood drive of the year will be held at Lopez Community Church in the Village on Tuesday, December 15, from noon to 6:00 p.m.

Lopez Island Lions ask you to give blood and join a long list of Lopez residents who provide a safety net for all islanders.

Almost 365 emergency calls a year are dispatched for Lopez Island Emergency Medical Services and Fire Department personel. Many of your neighbors are flown off island every year in life threatening situations.

For more information, contact Jerry Hancock, the Lions Club blood drive coordinator, at 468-3871 or jerryhancock@rockisland.com.
