The Inland Northwest Blood Center traveled to Prairie
High School on Friday, May 4th. 2 seniors from Grangeville High School
scheduled their blood drive during Prairie High School's spring break
and contacted us to see if we could make this a competition with Prairie
to keep that rivalry going! Prairie won the competition by having
more students and staff donate. We actually tied with Grangeville
with 27 donors, but Prairie won since they had more staff members participate.
Prairie will continue to schedule the INBC every fall and spring in the
years to come. I would like to thank everyone who took the time to
donate and save a life!! Go Pirates! Photo by Jon Rehder. Click on
