Have Adventure In Your Blood?

BROOKSVILLE - LifeSouth will host a blood drive on Wednesday, May 14 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the Sam's Club Shopping Center, located at 13378 Cortez Blvd. The event theme is "Raiders of the Lost Artery" and LifeSouth invites donors to dodge the boulder, crack the whip and get in the chair to save a life.
