Community Affair Blood Bank The Blood Bank at Aptos High this year was a great success. People came from all over the community to join in the uGift of Love It was held both in December and in April and the chairs were never empty. Students were told their blood types and issued blood donor cards. Stu- dents from Aptos also helped as aids helping the nurses by running errands, typing blood cards, and making sure the donors were comfortable. Students were served cookies and juice after donating blood and were given strict instructions to take it easy for the day. Many students felt it was a worthwhile cause and would surely do it again in years to come. It was a friendly atmosphere and all the nurses were very kind and understanding. Giv- ing blood is something we should all do. It gives you a-wonderful feeling.
