I dunno how some might feel about this but here it goes:
What if a future meet helped the community by everyone donating blood at a blood drive center?
meet up,donate,eat some free cookies and drinks, then off to what ever else we decide.
The vision in my head is:
Dealership sponsers the drive
special guest gives everyone a heads up over radio
Group helps out the community
Draws more attention to the group
Like i said, It is just an idea that popped in my head, but I know some people hate needles so... your thoughts??

Oh yeah my blood runs cold just to give for lab work.....but I'm still open to being a part of the event. I'm sure we can also come up with other comunity ideas over time like food drive Thanksgiving, toy drive Christmas, etc.

Very good idea Chris came up with.....And I'm sure the blood centers will come out for the cause. I may not give but I can promote the event to other folks and possibly get them to come out.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!!!
I have sent an email to giveblood.org in regards to a meet, sponsored by GiveBlood.org for early next year. We'll need time to promote this meet and make it the biggest so far.
I will post an update once I get word from them.
