Our slowest time through the day was from 2-4 p.m., but we were still busy. It really was steady throughout the day.

More than 200 volunteers came out to help us, and our community, as always, really stepped up to support us again this year.

I am always amazed each year at the support that comes from the community for this event. We have over 100 sponsors, and we will have more than 200 volunteers coming out to help us.

We are very happy to have the expansion of this procedure into this area. It's exciting to see a new technology in blood collections arriving here.
