DAYTON & DARKE COUNTY, Ohio Summer is fading fast! Time is running out to grab a unique gift from Community Blood Center (CBC) and jump into the drawing for a 2012 “race red” Ford Focus.

On, Saturday, September 1, 2012 from 9:00 am – 12:00 pm, Dave Knapp Ford Lincoln will offer the community the last opportunity in Darke County to get registered for the 2012 Ford Focus in Darke County. Enjoy great food and special door prizes at this wrap up summer blood drive! Appointments are encouraged.

Notice about important changes to CBC’s donor ID system - CBC has assigned new, eight-digit donor identification numbers to all donors. When donors present their current CBC Donor ID card at a CBC branch or mobile drive it will be noted for replacement and the donor will receive a new plastic Donor ID card and key fob card in the mail. Donors must use their new Donor ID number to schedule appointments on www.DonorTime.com.

Technology is making it faster and more convenient than ever to schedule your next blood donation. Just use your computer or smart phone to make an appointment online at www.DonorTime.com. You can also schedule your next appointment using your mobile device to scan the DonorTime QR code.

Blood donation requirements: Donors are required to provide a photo ID that includes their full name. Past CBC donors are also asked to bring their CBC donor ID card.
