The Rock N’ Roll Up Your Sleeve Blood Drive is being held to increase blood donations this summer. While local blood inventories are presently stable, they must be maintained during the traditional summer slowdown so patients have the blood they need.
The Rock N’ Roll Up Your Sleeve Blood Drive will be held on Thursday, August 7 from 1 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the Peoria Civic Center. Several local rock bands will perform including Sinking In, Mindset Evolution and Echovalve. The concert will be 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. and is free to all blood drive participants!
In addition to the free concert, all blood drive participants will have the chance to win some great raffle prizes from area retailers such as Quail Meadows Golf Course, Taco Bell, Wildlife Prairie State Park, Texas Roadhouse, CEFCU, Shoppes of Grand Prairie, Peoria Town and Country Bowl and more. Also, 105.7 the X will be giving away tickets to the Projekt Revolution Tour featuring Linkin Park. If someone does not wish to present to donate blood, but would like to attend the rock concert, a $10 donation to the American Red Cross will be collected at the event.
