The Elsie/Madrid Blood Drive, held on October 9th, regrettably fell short of reaching its established American Red Cross goal. The dry weather presented an opportune time for many donors to commence harvest activities, thereby limiting their availability to donate on that particular day. Despite this challenge, the Elsie Altar Society provided a well-received lunch, a gesture consistently appreciated by both donors and Red Cross personnel. We commend Mickey Phillips for reaching the significant milestone of six gallons donated. Donating their time and resources were: Katie Emanuel, Jane Potts, and Marian Glunz. The community is encouraged to mark their calendars for the next Elsie/Madrid Blood Drive, scheduled for December 4, 2026, at the Elsie Methodist Church. Your participation is vital in helping us meet future donation goals and support critical blood supplies Picture is Mickey Phillips Donating blood , Red Cross Staff-Lauren and Mickey’s son Jared Phillips also donating in the background.
