POTTSTOWN STUDENT GOVERNMENT WANTS YOUR BLOOD

This comes to us via John Armato at the School District…

Pottstown High School Student Government is hosting a blood drive on November 16th. It will be held in the high school band room and will begin at 7:30 AM. 

The requirements for someone to donate blood are:

  • must be 17 years of age
  • must be at least 110 pounds
  • must not have received a tattoo or body piercing within the last year.

You must register in advance by Nov. 13th! To donate contact Mr. Mark  Agnew at magnew@pottstownsd.org with  name and time you would like to donate on Nov. 16th. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask.

Blood transfusions save more than 4 million lives each year. Student Government President Megan O’Donnell reminds all “it is estimated that blood is needed every two seconds, and that 1 out of 7 people entering the hospital will need blood. Since blood cannot be manufactured or harvested, it can only come from people like YOU – the volunteer blood donor! Thank you in advance!”

DEADLINE TO REGISTER IS NOVEMBER 13.  THERE WILL BE NO WALK-INS THAT DAY. Enter at the High School main office.

Harvest Moon to shine down on Cluster on October 12th

On Friday, October 12th, the First Annual Fundraising Dinner to benefit The Pottstown Cluster will be held at the Berean Bible Church on High Street in Sanatoga. 

The event committee, chaired by Dr. Myra Forrest, has been busy planning unique decorations and activities to go along with their theme:  Shine On, Harvest Moon.  The committee includes: Terryl Andrews-Marsh, Sharon Basile , Sue Creswell, Doreen Duncan,  Lesley Duall, Lois Georeno, Lalena Kennedy, JoAnn McKiernan, Linda Voytilla, and Carol Weitzenkorn.

The night promises to be memorable with performances by local  soprano and singing-actress, Maggie Heffner Moliterno, who has performed in operas, musicals, concerts, and cabarets across the United States and Europe; 11-year old Madison Kershner, a talented student from St. Aloysius School;  and an assembled choir comprised of members from many of Pottstown area’s worship centers.

To keep the night running smoothly, John Armato, Director of Community Relations for the Pottstown School District, will emcee the program.  Catering for this special event will be done by Pottstown’s very own Bause Catered Events.

Interesting auction items are being procured, table sponsorships are firming up, program ads are being placed, and tickets are now available to the public at $45 each.  Please call The Cluster at (610) 970-5995 or contact any event committee member to reserve yours today!
