The Vampire Swim is going ahead in Myrtleville on October 31st at 12 midday.  Swim is a loose term – you can just dip your feet for a paddle if you want.  The goal is to encourage people to donate blood during this month.   If you donate blood, the entry fee is €10 – if not, you can still swim, but it’s €15.

Funds raised will be donated to the CUH Children’s Ward charity.

A group is being organised to donate blood on October 16th at the Blood Bank in St. Finbarr’s Hospital.  Contact Aisling Barry for details – barry.aisling08@gmail.com.  For info on giving blood, see http://www.giveblood.ie.

So, get ready to donate and register your entry with Aisling Barry.  There are very cool vampire swim hats for the first 50 registered entries.
