If they want me to donate a pint o' blood, is it really "free?"

The Berwyn Park District would like to thank everyone who participated in the Centennial Picnic.  The weather was gorgeous, the food was great, and everyone had a great time. There was a constant flow of people at the event from start to finish.

Thank you to the veterans for the great Flag Day program and the donated American flags.

It was reported that 28 people donated blood and that somepeople were unable to donate beacuse the LifeSource bus was full.  Thank you to all of the donors!
