Piedmont Region (Virginia and North 1 Carolina).

Thirteen hundred pints of blood was the quota assigned to the local chapter by the National Red Cross. Citizen responses at the bloodmobile resulted in the collectiqp, of 1,500 pints, or 200 over quota. National Red Cross headquarters in Washington has sent the local chapter a plaque signifying the accomplishment.
