Free Redskins game ticket! - Red Cross:Give blood, get one free game ticket

[JCSMCPCCrskins]

Does anyone know if they give out seats next to one another? If my girlfriend stood right behind me in line or made an appointment around the same time, is it possible to get two seats together? Either way it is an awesome deal, I am just wondering if we would end up on opposite sides of the stadium or something.

I am trying not to be too jealous, but it's difficult

As a Redskins fan, one of my dreams is to see them play live, and I couldn't care less where the seats are . But since I live in Europe I have not had the chance yet.

I just donated blood last week, because I think it is a good thing to do and part of me hopes that it may help another person out at some point.

I've been doing it for a few years now and fairly regularly and I am absolutely fine with there being no rewards for it or anything, I'm happy with the good feeling I get...but when I see something like this, I just can't help but feel a little bit jealous

But a good thing to do by the organisation

[MarkB452]

This is NOT listed on the redcross website, but I found on the Skins site:

Participate with a friend and you will each get a ticket!

The next Redskins blood drives are:

Friday, Nov. 26

Hampton Inn Frederick

5311 Buckeystown Pike

Frederick, Md. 21701

8 a.m.-3 p.m.

Friday, Nov. 26

Hilton Hotel Gaithersburg

620 Perry Parkway

Gaithersburg, Md. 20877

8 a.m.-3 p.m.

Tickets for the Redskins-Buccaneers game on Dec. 12 will be provided to all participants at this event.

[SkinsNatsFan]

Sorry Mark, I've fallen behind and failed to update the title.

Additional link and info for the ticket related drives Mark listed above :

http://fans.redskinsrule.com/_Give-a-little/BLOG/3023833/54110.html

The American Red Cross and the Redskins have two important blood-drive donation locations set up for Friday in Maryland and participants will get a ticket to the game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Dec. 12.

Registration is required. Call 1-800-REDCROSS or visit www.redcrossblood.org/Redskins.

The two locations in Maryland on Friday are:

*The Hampton Inn Hotel at 5311 Buckeystown Pike, Frederick, Md.

*The Hilton Hotel at 620 Perry Parkway, Gaithersburg, Md.

The Red Cross is the exclusive blood donation partner of the Washington Redskins. If tickets are not available for the Tampa Bay game, other games may be substituted. All tickets courtesy of the Red Cross. Go with a friend, do a little giving and a little giving and enjoy a Redskins game.

[NattyBo]

Signed the wife and myself up for the Gaithersburg event. Two more voices to help us beat the Bucs for what will hopefully be our 4th win in a row

I'm sure they'll be nosebleeds but I anticipate being able to move down without a problem

[MarkB452]

Sorry Mark, I've fallen behind and failed to update the title.

No problem. I have been monitoring this like crazy in pursuit of either some Tampa tix and/or Giants tix (gotta get someone to go with me too - my nephew wants to get a Giants ticket - good motivation for him to donate ) I had donated right before they announced this for the Dallas game and have been waiting and waiting for my 57 days to pass. They did about 2-3 weeks ago and now I am waiting for the right event (preferably on a weekend and somewhere not too much of a haul from Fredericksburg).

I'll also take this opportunity to plug this site where you can report your blood donations to get points to earn prizes or donate your points to benefit our troops and their families.

www.redcrossracing.com

>> Supporting the American Red Cross Service to the Armed Forces (SAF) is an opportunity to serve those who serve our nation. As the United States approaches nearly a decade of presence in Afghanistan and Iraq, the members of our Armed Forces and their families need the Red Cross now more than ever.

Our network spans 700 Red Cross chapters, as well as Veterans Affairs hospitals and military bases worldwide. Through this network, our 7,000 SAF volunteers and staff:

Offer resources for deployed service members and their families

Provide emergency communications

Support wounded warriors programs

Support hospital outreach and veterans programs

Support families coping with the stress of deployments

You can help by giving back your Donor Rewards points. Red Cross Racing will designate a donation for every point returned and make a contribution to the Service to the Armed Forces relief fund. Fund monies go to providing services, programs and goods like comfort kits and pre-paid phone cards.

The work of the Red Cross is important to the nation because it is important to our troops and their families. Make giving back a habit and support Service to the Armed Forces

[NattyBo]

Bump! Just got back from the Gaithersburg site. Very friendly staff and they still had tickets for the Vikings game. I had to beg for tix to the Bucs game since we're out of the state this Sunday, and I got 'em, but they're trying to give out the Vikes ones first. Either way great cause and I'll definitely donate again in the future tix or no, it was painless and seems like an easy way to help other people in need. This was my first time and it was a breeze! Got decent ticket too, 448 R23 S1.

If anyone out there doesn't have a ticket to the Vikes or Bucs game and wants to cheer on the Skins for free and help other people, get out to Gaithersburg before 3

I'm sure you could leave it there. Not sure where you'll have to go to pick it up though.

[SkinsNatsFan]

My son and I are planning to give blood at the Ashburn drive on the 28th. We gave double red at the drive during training camp and we can finally give again.
