BILOXI, Miss. � The Third Annual Mississippi Sea Wolves and WLOX-TV Holiday Blood Drive held yesterday at the Mississippi Coast Coliseum Convention Center for the American Red Cross brought in a record 303 donors, surpassing the previous high of 261 set last year.
�We are very pleased with the community support,� said Sea Wolves general manager and coach Bob Woods. �It was a pleasure to partner with WLOX-TV again to help the American Red Cross at a time of year where blood supply is at a shortage.�
Each donor received a free T-shirt, free ticket to any Sea Wolves regular season home game in 2004-05 plus a free team photo. In addition, door prizes were given away every hour including promotional Sea Wolves jerseys. Special refreshments and Domino�s pizza were also served.
