Surf Club Challenge

THE HEAT IS ON ROLL UP YOUR SLEEVES.Its time to roll up your sleeves and get your blood pumping for our club in this

years Surf Club Challenge!The Red Cross Blood Service Surf Club Challenge is on to see which club on the

Sunshine Coast can give the most blood and therefore save the most lives off the

beach this season.

There are two categories up for grabs - The Hayden Kenny Cup for most number

of donations received from a club (previous winners Alexandra Headland & Ma-

roochydore clubs) and the Life Savers Shield for the highest percentage of dona-

tions based on club membership numbers (previous winners Dicky Beach & Sun-

shine Beach clubs).

These amazing donors provide blood for the one in three of us who will require

blood or blood products during our lifetime. As the demand for blood increases,

so does the need for donors. Every time you donate you can save up to three

lives!

The Surf Club Challenge will run from 16 January 2012 to the 16 March 2012

and you need to make a donation between these dates to make it count to our

tally.

You can donate at Nambour, Maroochydore or the mobile van which travels all

over the coast including our local area by calling 13 14 95 or visiting donate-

blood.com.au to make an appointment .
