The annual Badges of Life Blood Drive recently encouraged Douglas County residents to donate blood in honor of the local public safety department of their choice. A chart is kept of how many pints of blood are donated for each in this friendly competition at the Douglas County Courthouse, with the ‘winning’ department receiving an award from the American Red Cross.
