Red Cross Blood Drive at Valwood
Friday, May 16
8:00 am – 2:00 pm
Eager Sports Center
Please donate a pint of blood this Friday. There is a critical blood shortage across the country, and specifically in Georgia. The Southern Region uses 1,200 pints of blood daily. Due to low donations rates our region has to import 45,000 units of blood every year to meet our needs. Donating a pint is quick, virtually painless, and can save up to three lives. Schedule an appointment by calling or e-mailing Chuck Glassmire: (229)242-8491 or cglassmire@valwood.org . Walk-ins are also welcome. We hope to have a big turnout at this drive, and we need your help.
You’ll want blood available for your family when they need it…so please give now!
I can't tell you how scary it is to need blood and not have it. Too many people take for granted that it's just there when you need it. Several times we had to wait for blood and platelets to be flown in from other states because there was none available. Many people depend on blood products to live each week. It's not just for emergencies or surgeries. Please give if you are able. You must be at least 17 years old and weigh at least 110 pounds. If you are not sure if you are able to give due to health concerns or medication you may be taking, please call 1-800-GIVE LIFE (800-448-3543)and they can answer any questions you have. Thank you so much for helping with this worthwhile cause.

Victoria
Victoria's Kids
Victoria loved her brothers and sister very dearly. She called them "her kids". When they were at school she would say, "when are my kids coming home?" Many have asked how Victoria's "kids" are doing so this spot will be dedicated to them:
Krista has finally graduated! She is going to school for the Radiology Tech Degree Program.
Travis is in 12th grade. He is playing on a traveling paintball team. He plays is Georgia, Florida, Alabama, North Carlolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and Mississppi. He is playing D1 X-ball with Adrenalin Army out of middle Georgia. They play in the CFOA, GFOA, PSP and MSXL paintball series. He is working on opening a paintball field in Valdosta, GA.
Ronnie is in 11th grade this year. He spends most of his time working on the race cars with his dad. He is learning alot! He is starting his third season driving a race car and will be racing this year in the Pure Stock class on dirt at Douglas Motorspeedway, Golden Isles Speedway, Waycross Motorspeedway and North Florida Speedway and on asphalt at South Georgia Motorsports Park.
Jesse Lee is 2 now but thinks he's 20! He is growing fast & trying hard to keep up with his brothers. He is very independent. He loves the race cars and gets so mad when he can't hang out in the shop with this dad & brother. He also loves going to paintball practice with Travis. He is a funny little kid. He has brought alot of joy into our lives. He loves being a little brother and a big brother to Trevor.
Trevor was born July 7, 2011. He is a happy, loving little kid and he smiles all the time. His little face lights up when he sees his brothers and his dad. He is trying really hard to learn to crawl and makes all kinds of sounds. He's really funny.
