Blood donations in May and June dropped to the lowest levels the

Demand for blood remained steady during this same period, which
is why the Red Cross needs people-now more than ever-to roll up
a sleeve and give as soon as possible.
All types are needed, but especially O negative, which can be
used to treat any patient.

vice for our country.
Also of great interest was the
Preston County Sports Museum.
Members especially enjoyed
browsing through the exhibit
for Fellowsville High School,
and the many articles and pic-
tures from the teams. They
brought back happy memories
of younger days and stretched
our memories as we sought to
remember people, ages, teams
and statistics.
Ethel Sypolt, a graduate of
Rowlesburg High School, really
enjoyed the tour as the building
brought back many memories
of her high schools days. She
was also able to answer some
questions about the site.

the museums and displays and
quizzed us on some sports his-
tory. We were able to share
some information with her

helped make the whole experi-

joyed the leisurely meal
