The Leonardtown Lions Club hosted a Red Cross Blood Drive on Friday, April 19, at the Episcopal Church on St. Andrews Road. Lions Frank Nuhfer (left) and John Brown are seen assisting one of the blood donors, Mrs. Kathleen Kirby, wife of the President (King Lion) of the Club, George Kirby. Not pictured, but also very active that day, was Lion Joe Dunn, the Chairman of the group. 25 hours of volunteer work were contributed by the Lions.
Lion Joe Dunn reported that a total of 34 productive units of blood were collected by the Red Cross. It was an excellent day’s work for everyone involved. The Blood Drive filled all the time slots and the Red Cross blood collection team was full-time busy keeping up with the donors!
Lion Joe: “Another very successful community support event for the Leonardtown Lions Club. It shows how important our annual donation to the Red Cross is, in making blood drawings like this possible and so successful.”
