THE BATTALION
Aggies will have a chance to
bleed maroon by donating blood
to the Red Cross today as part of
the Rally on the Plaza at the
Bernard C. Richardson Zone
plaza at Kyle Field.
The rally was first planned as
a party to boost spirits for
Saturday’s A&M-Notre Dame
game, said Miles Marks, director
of the 12th Man Foundation. The
Red Cross was incorporated into
the rally’s plans following this
month's terrorist attacks on New
York City and Washington, D.C.,
and the resulting blood shortages.
“We thought it could be a
much more noble event if we
made the event in response to
the tragedies,” Marks said.
The Rally will take place
from 3 to 7 p.m., and will fea
ture the Aggie Wrangler Dance
team, Aggie mascot Reveille
VII and the yell leaders. Live
music performances — includ
ing Bleu Edmondson, Jody
Booth, Peter Dawson and James
Hyland — will take the stage
starting at 5 p.m.
The Red Cross will set up at
2 p.m. to begin the pre-donation
screenings.
Concessions have been
reduced to $1 for each event. A
quarter from all purchases will
be donated to the relief fund,
Marks said.
The Red Cross plans to col
lect 60 units of blood today, said
Theresa Evangelista, territory
manager for Red Cross blood
services in College Station. The
Red Cross does not want to turn
away potential donors, so they
have increased blood collection,
storage and freezing capacity,
Evangelista said.
There is still a strong need
for blood, she said.
“Even though our needs have
been met in the New York and
Washington areas, there is still
an ongoing need for all types of
blood in the future as we prepare
to go to war,” she said.
All blood donors will be
entered into a drawing for two
seats on the club level of the
Zone for Saturday’s game.
Those unable to donate will still
be eligible for the drawing with
a $5 donation to the Red Cross
relief efforts.
Funds go towards providing
food, temporary housing and
grief counseling to those affect
ed by the Sept. 1 1 attacks, said
Julie Maynard, a Red Cross
worker from New York City.
Maynard, Class of 1997, will
be attending the Notre Dame
game. She said Aggies are
always quick to respond to the
“call of duty.”
“Whether it’s through a
blood donation or a concession
purchase, even the smallest
contribution can make a big dif
ference,” Maynard said. “Last
week’s OSU game and this
event really give deep meaning
to the saying about Aggieland
that ‘You can't explain it from
the inside looking out, and you
can’t understand it from the
outside looking in.' ”
