From the Red Cross:

We need your help! We are in need of 12 more blood donors for the blood drive on Friday, January 3rd at Tuscola Faith Baptist Church from 11:30am-4:30pm. Will you help?? We rely on our volunteer blood donors to help us accomplish our mission of saving lives each and every day. With the New Years Holiday on Wednesday, we lose that day of blood collections, which averages between 450-500 units of blood. We must collect every unit we can to make up for this loss!! We need to be prepared for any type of emergency that arises and have the blood and blood products for hospital patients in need. It's not too late to make your appointment. Below is the direct link to sign up. Walk-ins are also welcome. As a thank you, all presenting donors will a long-sleeved t-shirt, while supplies last. Thank you for giving more life — and more hope. Thank you for your support of the ARC blood program!

Find the nearest Red Cross blood, platelet or plasma donation center. Make a difference in someone's life, give the gift of life.

Two grain bins collapsed in Arcola tonight. Look for the story in The County Chronicle next week. Nobody hurt, we're told.
