Donors can also enter to win one of two grand prize packages for four to Knott&#8217;s Berry Farm in California or Cedar Point in Ohio.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Blood and platelet donations are especially needed during the summer months when donations slow due to summer vacations and travel among regular donors,&#8221; said Rodney Wilson, communications manager for the Red Cross Indiana-Ohio Blood Services Region. &#8220;Thanks to the support of Cedar Fair, blood and platelet donors can help save lives and have the time of their lives at a Cedar Fair theme park.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>All those who come to donate at select blood drives will receive one free ticket, valid for entry to any U.S. Cedar Fair theme park, including Cedar Point, Kings Island and others, while supplies last. Tickets are valid for the 2016 season, and other restrictions may apply. Now through Sept. 5, donors can also visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redcrossblood.org\/cedarfair\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">redcrossblood.org\/cedarfair<\/a> to enter to win a grand prize package and take advantage of an exclusive ticket offer that gives $2 of each ticket purchased online back to the Red Cross.<\/p>\n<p>The partnership with Cedar Fair includes 10 theme parks across the U.S. with a goal of increasing blood and platelet donations during the summer months when donations decrease but the need remains constant. &#8220;Even the most committed donors can forget to make time to give blood during the busy summer season,&#8221; said Wilson. &#8220;Hopefully, the opportunity to receive a free amusement park ticket will remind people to make summer blood donation a priority.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Upcoming blood donation opportunities offering one free Cedar Fair theme park ticket:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/20160614_Red_Cross.jpg\" alt=\"Upcoming blood donation opportunities\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>How to donate blood<\/strong><br \/>\nSimply download the American Red Cross Blood Donor App, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/redcross.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">redcross.org<\/a> or call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) to make an appointment or for more information.
