We had a great turnout at the 5^th Annual Guns ‘N Hoses Blood Drive in Glasgow, Kentucky! With changing locations this year, we were worried that our donations would take a hit. But Glasgow proved us wrong, and we were able to exceed our donor goal again this year! Thank you to everyone who took time out of their day to help #SaveLives. We also would like to say thank you to Glasgow United Methodist church for allowing us to use their space, and a thank you to Hometown Insurance of Glasgow for donating food to help feed our donors. This event has a huge impact on the area, and we could not do it without the help of our community.

 For the 4^th year in a row, the Glasgow Police Department has beat out their competition (Glasgow Fire Department) for how many donations they could receive! This year, we had 68 donors, 10 first time donors, and we collected 67 pints of blood. This has the potential to save over 200 lives! These two departments do a lot for our community and are constantly doing more.

Thank you again to everyone involved in this years Guns ‘N Hoses Blood Drive!
