Dalton was surprised by his mom, Amanda, dad, David, and friends with a birthday parade by his Davis Chapel home in May.

Walk-in donors are welcome, although appointments to donate can be scheduled by calling 865-524-3074.  This is the second replacement blood drive that has been held in Campbell County for Dalton.  The first was held in June.  Each unit donated will decrease the cost of blood products by $15.

Anyone who donates blood will be tested for COVID-19 antibodies as part of an ongoing effort to identify and recruit potential COVID Convalescent Plasma donors.  (WLAF NEWS PUBLISHED – 09/11/2020-6AM)
