Cootie Bloodsuckers Jorg, Sue, Chuck and Christina extracted 14 pints of blood yesterday. Sign-ups were down, most likely because of the time of year and a state-wide blood donation campaign scheduled for next weekend. Thanks to all who donated and all who helped!

Reminder: Cootie sponsored Red Cross Blood Drive this Friday May 29th at the Hudson Post, 9-1:30. Please show up to help out and better yet, give blood! The Red Cross is giving away beach towels to celebrate your gift of life.

OK Cooties, here are the dates when we'll be at the Fairview Senior Living facility to test the residents' knowledge with some "Trivia with the Cooties." 4/17; 5/15; 6/19; 7/24. All are Fridays at 10:30 AM. This has become a popular event with residents, staff and Cooties having a lot of fun trying to answer our trivia questions. Please join us. Use the entrance on the Haffner's gas station side of the building. Can you answer this question: what product was advertised as "taking a licking, but keeps on ticking"? Answer in my next post. If you post the correct answer, good for you, but we only give prizes to the residents!

Listen up Cooties! Nominations for officers were made at last Wednesday's scratch. Your Seam Squirrel is pleased that Chuck Chapman is running for Seam Squirrel, and that two of our newest nits agreed to take positions as well. At the next scratch on April 1 (yes, April Fool's Day) we will accept any further nominations and then vote. On another subject, the Pup Tent will host Red Cross Blood drives at the Hudson Post on May 29 and July 31. Please consider showing up to help at 9 AM or donating blood. Yours in the L.O.T.C.S. Christina, Seam Squirrel.

I didn't make it to Fairview Friday, but Chuck and Sue did, and I heard they and the residents and staff had a grand time! Trivia with the Cooties is very popular. The residents, including veterans, enjoyed answering the questions and even singing along to some jingles and theme songs. Let's keep it going, Cooties! Next visit is scheduled for March 6 at 10:30. Use the entrance facing Heffner's gas station. Do you have some trivia questions? Send them along to be included next time we visit. Your Seam Squirrel is delighted that the Pup Tent is supporting our veterans as well as the community. And, a shout out to Lew Chipola who holds a monthly chat at a Nashua Senior Living Facility.
