Free Press Staff Photo Donor cliniec being held July 10 By MARGARET HORTON Summer holidays -- a time of warm relaxing days in the sun at the cottage by the lake or at home by the backyard pool - a time free of worries and obligations. The Whitby Branch of the Canadian Red Cross Society hopes that all Whitby's regular donors will a ttend the July 10 blood donor 'linic before they start their carefree holidays. The need for blood does not take a summer holiday. In actual fact, this need usually in- creases during the summer. There are so many long holiday weekends with in- creased traffic on the roads that unfortunate accidents do occur in- creasing the need for blood. There are those people who constantly need blood or blood products - people suf- fering from haemophiia and leukemia, or people neecling surgery in our local hospitals. Giving blood is a relatively easy thing for any healthy person bet- ween the ages of 17 and 65. It only takes about 45 minutes out of a day to give this worthy gift of life. This 45 minutes in- cludes registering, having blood tested, giving blood, resting and snacking - a routine that the regular donor soon becomes ac- customed to. It is impor- tant that the donor has ABILITY FUND WORKING WITH PHYSICALLY DISABLED ADULTS had regular meals the day of the clinic. The Whitby Branch of the Red Cross saw 1984 off to a good start at the January clinic with an attendance of 453, but unfortunately the tur- nout for the April clinic dropped to 371. We are appealing to our Whitby donors to corne out for the July clinic in the same way they lid for the. January one. It really makes a chiimc worthwhile and exciting when it is well attended. There is an air of suc- cess that'permeates a busy clinic - everyone feels it, from the paid personnel of the Blood Transfusion Service to the blue-smocked volun- teers to the donors themselves. The necessary staff and equipment are always there, but it takes a good donor turnout to tran- sform an average clinic into a really successfu.l one. Before you start your holidays, donate blood at the July 10 clinic to be held at the Whitby Legion Hall-on Byron St. S. between the hours of 1 and 8 p.m. Bring a friend - introduce them to the special feeling of giving the gift of life.
