PSDA President’s Message – May 2008

The PSDA has a hand full of people that donate blood just about every month, some of them every month and when they get that Donor Card from the Blood Bank, they have Palomar Square Dance Association put on the card, it then goes into an account that PSDA has with the San Diego Blood Bank.

    We have a Blood Bank Director that keeps track of our account, if you are a member of one of our clubs, you can let us know if you ever need blood, the director will then give one of those donor cards to the hospital blood replacement director to replace the blood you needed.

    We would like to thank you to those hand full of people that donate all the time, then we would like to invite anyone of you to join this small group, one way we are saying thank you in May is to let you into our (PSDA) May 31st, 5th Saturday Dance FREE if you bring in a donor card with PSDA on it. Blood donated between our last meeting 3/10/2008 and 5/31/2008. We are making a new Blood Bank Banner, it will be giving out for the first time, at this dance to the Club that has the highest number of donor cards turned in. 

    Last year five of us did the San Diego Blood Bank 5/k walk/run, between our group we raised about $1,500.00. Some of us plan to be walking again this year, it would be nice if you could join our team and walk with us, it was a lot of fun and they feed us very well too.

    We have some very special members in the PSDA our Blood Donors are part of these special members, we would like to say THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

See you in a Square
