Guns & Hoses Blood Drive Monday

The Ponca City Guns & Hoses Blood Drive by the Oklahoma Blood Institute will be Monday, May 16.

The competition pits the Ponca City Fire Department against the Ponca City Police Department to see which department can get the most blood donations.

The bloodmobile will be at Fire Station No. 1 at Fifth Street and Grand Avenue from 9 a.m. to noon. To schedule your donation there, call Ken Eck at (580) 767-0361.

In the afternoon, the bloodmobile will move to the Ponca City Police Department at 200 East Oklahoma from 2 to 5 p.m. To schedule your donation there, call Nancy Bricker at (580) 767-0375.

No matter which donation site you pick, you can designate your blood donation to go to the agency you support.

Each blood donor will receive two free zoo tickets and a free T-shirt.

A photo ID is required for all donors.
