bcrein@ptd.net.VolunteertrainingAlthough Palmerton is blessed with many regular blood donors, it is short of volunteers to help at the canteen for blood drives.Miller-Keystone will be conducting a refresher course for current volunteers and training program for new volunteers on the day of the next community blood drive, at 10 a.m. Oct. 27 in the "Parlor" at the First United Church of Christ.This will save the volunteers from making a trip to Miller headquarters in Bethlehem.Anyone interested in volunteering may contact George Ashman at 610-826-2097 or
