The Blood Drive is hosted by the Skiatook FCCLA Chapter. The Oklahoma Blood Institute is set up in the old gym on October 7th, starting at 9:00 am, and ending at 2:00 pm. Everyone has a different schedule and workload, so if you are thinking “What if I have Tech?” or “I can’t miss certain classes!”, we have appointment times for everyone! Now if you are wondering what the requirements are, here’s a list! You must be 16 or older and weigh 125 Lbs, if you are 16 or 17 you must have a signed permission slip. If you are 17 or up, you must weigh 110 Lbs. Mrs. McIntire sent out a sign-up sheet and OBI came last week to encourage you to sign up in person. It’s simple, anyone can do it, you can pick up permission slips in Ms. Prock’s room in room 114. Now if you are wondering what you get if you donate, well, that is a fantastic question! You get a Beetlejuice-themed t-shirt that glows in the dark. And better yet, you get free snacks, get called out of class, and you gain 1000+ aura points from donating blood! Last but not least, how many people do you save when you donate blood? You save 3 different people per donation you make, and you can donate blood anytime! Oklahoma Blood Institute has blood banks and donation centers all over, so you can donate outside of school too! You do so much good when you donate, so let’s get to the old gym and give the OBI some PeopleJuice!
