In high school, cross country was my life. I loved to run. I lived to run. I was team captain for Trimble County High School.

My senior year my team was on course to make history. We had won every race leading up to regionals. We won our conference out right as well as the conference championship race. We even won the regional championship, which ended up being one of the best races I ever had personally.

During Red Cross Month, the American Red Cross will hold a blood donation drive 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. March 25 at Dow Corning Corp., 4770 U.S. Highway 42 East, in Carrollton.

Like the emergency room of a hospital, the Red Cross must be prepared to respond to patient needs around the clock.

Donors can assist by giving blood or platelets, volunteering, taking a class or making a financial donation

With the generous support of blood donors, the Red Cross can help ensure all patients have the blood products they need, no matter when or where.
