Isn’t it nice,
though, to have
these nice, clear
days to enjoy,
even if it isn’t
hot, th sunny
weather is so
cheerful. : Fe

SEVERAL BACK MOUNTAIN
Meadows Nursing Center.
July 1 is slated for the first blood
drive of the summer season in the
Back Mountain. The Red Cross
announced that the Meadows Nurs-
ing Center and the Meadows Apart-
ments, Dallas, will participate for-
mally, for the first time by
providing the facility and many of
the supporting services.
The Meadows Apartments opened
its doors to residents in Feburary,
1982 and in August, 1983 the Nursing
Center commenced operations.
Approached recently by members of
the Back Mountain Blood Council to
err
gram that has been providing blood
from Back Mountain residents for
over three years, Judy Harding,
R.N., Director of Nursing Services,
at the Meadows Nursing Center
arranged for the complex to take
part.
The blood drive will be held at the
Meadows Apartments, 220 Lake
Street, Dallas, in the Community
Room on July 1 between 11:45 a.m.
and 5:45 p.m. The Red Cross Blood
Center in Hanover has asked the
council to accept a target of 190
pints. Past history shows that this
should be met easily. Regular
donors in the Back Mountain will be
receiving calls during the two week
period before the bloodmobile.
“This is a period when we find the
need often exceeds the number of
donations” reported Paul Hodges,
Donor Resource Director at the
Blood Center and also a resident of

the task of recruiting donors that
