RECORD-BREAKING TURNOUT made this year’s Guns & Hoses blood drive competition between the Kingfisher police and fire departments the most successful local drive as well as the most blood drawn at any police-fire competition drive in northwest Oklahoma. A total of 103 units of blood and blood products were drawn in the day-long event last Tuesday, including a pint from Police Chief Dennis Baker, drawn by Lauren Farrand of the Oklahoma Blood Institute. “The lives of 309 patients have been impacted because a community came together and accomplished something monumental,” Carly Farmer of OBI said. “I want to give both Dennis and (KFD Chief) Tony Stewart recognition for their efforts.” As for the competition part, KPD keeps the traveling trophy for the second year, but Baker said, “it’s Oklahomans who are the true winners.” [Photos Provided]
