Greetings from the gymnasium at the North Conway Community Center. Our gym sees a number of different folks coming through week to week including a special kind of hero: blood donors.

Every other Friday, a crew of American Red Cross staff show up to host a blood drive. The American Red Cross is facing a critical blood shortage, making these drives essential. The team sweeps in early in the morning with a small box truck and brings multiple wheeled carts into the center at an impressive pace. They quickly transform our gym into a fully equipped blood donation facility.
