Community residents are encouraged to join Tyler Hyde – Eagle Scout – and the Delta Blood Bank for a blood drive on Tuesday, Aug. 4 from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. at 1111 E. A St., Oakdale.

Delta Blood Bank’s mobile will be location for this event. For more information, contact Tyler Hyde at 951-434-8640.

All registered donors will receive loyalty points, courtesy of Delta Blood Bank.

Blood donors should be in good general health, at least 17 years of age and weigh a minimum of 110 pounds. Donors may be 16 years old, but must have parental consent and weigh a minimum of 115 pounds.

All donors must present a driver’s license, military ID or passport. Donations will be accepted for replacements for blood used by a friend or relative, for one of Delta’s Blood Plan programs or for general community use.

The donation process takes about 60 minutes. This includes registration, a medical screening and a 15-minute rest period in the refreshment area with juice and cookies, in addition to the actual blood donation.
