The annual fall blood drive sponsored by the Bolingbrook High School National Honor Society is scheduled for 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 16 in the Wrestling Room.
With the help of the school's Air Force Junior ROTC unit, BHS operated the fourth largest blood drive program among state high schools last year. Donations from last year's three blood drives saved over 1,500 people's lives and earned $7,000 in scholarship money for BHS students.
The goal this year is to be number 1.
