Friends of Sara Blood Donor Clinc

Canadian Blood Services says the Nov. 30 clinic at the North West Family Church in Royal Oak is 96% full! Joy has been hearing from a lot of people in the Tod's ringette family and is pleased to report the volunteers for that night also come from this wonderful bunch of people!

If you would like to donate blood at that clinic, which runs from 3-8 p.m., please call 1-888-2-DONATE.

NOTE: Canadian Blood Service uses a call centre approach to customer service. This means you could be talking to someone who is not familiar with Calgary. (Some of them also do not appear to be all that familiar with the CBS web site, but that's another story!).

Please be patient with them -- and do persevere. They will find this clinic if you give them time, and keep telling them you KNOW it's there!

If you cannot make the Nov. 30 clinic, but want to make sure Unit 57 at the Foothills Hospital always has enough blood products for people like Sara, fear not!

The CBS hosts blood donor clinics in Calgary every day.

The next one in North-West Calgary will be held:
Foothills Alliance Church
333 Edgepark Blvd
Saturday December 5th
9:30 am to 2:30 pm

Call 1-888-2-DONATE

  1. Sara, great to hear about your remission status - - we're thrilled to learn of this positive step. Keep fighting the good fight - - there is an army of friends supporting you on this. As always, please don't hestiate to have Kevin, Erin or Allie let us know if we can be of some help. We saw the girls play in Saskatoon - - they looked great on the ice! Look forward to seeing you one day soon; we miss catching up at the rink.

    Love the blog posts - - - the Tod sense of humour weaves nicely throughout the articles.

    Lots of Love,

    Karen and the Chown clan
