Whitefish spring blood drive

The American Red Cross will host its spring Whitefish community blood drive on Thursday, March 20, in the gym at the WAVE, located at 1250 Baker Ave., from 11 a.m. until 5:30 p.m. The entire blood donation process takes about an hour, including check-in, a brief health review, drawing blood and snacks afterwards.  

Appointments are recommended and a blood donor card or a driver’s license is required at check-in. To schedule your appointment for March 20, please call Merry Lynn at 406-250-0146. Walk-in donors are welcome; however, there may be a short wait. It is suggested that you eat a hardy meal and drink plenty of water prior to giving blood. Snacks, water and juices will be provided for you at the blood drive.
