It’s time
again, and during the holidays there is often a high demand for blood.
On Thursday, January 6th from 3:30 to 8:00 pm, there will be a Red Cross
Blood Drive at the Pittsfield Elementary School on Bow Street, sponsored by
the PTO. To avoid wait time you may call 1-800-Red-Cross
(1-800-733-2767) for an appointment. However, walk-ins are welcome.
While you help save lives by giving blood, Dunkin’ Donuts is offering “Give
a pint - Get a pound”. Child care is provided for your convenience.
