Give the gift of life

The American Red Cross is asking you to gather your friends and be there for others by making a blood or platelet donation. Festive activities and busy calendars this time of year can disrupt normal routines, leading to a drop in blood donation appointments. Your help is much appreciated.

Two blood drives will be held today (November 25). The first will be from 9:00 to 3:00 at the Sauk County Public Health Department in Baraboo. The second will be from 11:30 to 5:30 at the Recreation Center in Reedsburg.

Appointments are preferred by visiting RedCrossBlood.org or calling 1-800-RED CROSS.
