Tri-Village Rescue Services community blood drive Saturday, Aug. 24 from 8 to noon at 320 North Main St., New Madison.

August is the final month for all registered donors to receive the Solvita “From One to Many” beach towel and be automatically entered in the drawing for two tickets to Taylor Swift’s Nov. 3 show at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.
