May 11: American Red Cross
It’s no secret that we like pints, but this month we’re spotlighting pints of another kind. Join us for our next virtual event on Tuesday, May 11th from 5-8 pm as we celebrate the American Red Cross of Northern New England This event will be an online social gathering like the ones we’ve been doing recently.
A well-known part of the community, the American Red Cross does all kinds of amazing things, from blood to disaster and supporting military families. But they also need our help: they need community volunteers, they need financial support, and they need folks to roll up their sleeves and give blood. For more information about all of this: https://www.redcross.org/local/me-nh-vt.html.
If feasible, we’d ask you to consider donating your usual $5 or more, and all of the money that we raise on May 11th and for a few weeks after will be passed on to the American Red Cross of Northern New England.
We’re also selling hard copies of our Bangor Area Trails map for $5, with all proceeds going to the same organization; to purchase the map, see our PayPal site: https://www.paypal.com/instantc…/checkout/2QABGAWQVGS26….
There’s also going to be an opportunity for you to win a $25 Buoy Local gift card! Everyone who likes and shares the American Red Cross video featured in the discussion section of the event page by midnight on Tuesday, May 18th will be entered for a chance to be the randomly selected winner of the gift card!
We also love it when you let us know that you’re attending the event! Be sure to post messages, photos, and short videos on the event wall to let us know that you’re attending.
Finally, be sure to watch when the Bangor Greendrinks Chair, Mark, goes live for “the talk” around 6:30 pm on May 11th. This is the “Facebook Live” portion of the evening.
See you at the next virtual event when we celebrate the American Red Cross of Northern New England.
Cheers!
The Bangor Greendrinks Familia
