Montgomery Catholic Hosts Ninth Annual Coach Tim Turner Memorial Blood Drive

Montgomery Catholic Hosts Ninth Annual Coach Tim Turner Memorial Blood Drive 1Montgomery Catholic Preparatory School hosted the ninth annual Coach Tim Turner Memorial Blood Drive Wednesday, March 18, 2015 in the parking lot of our Middle/High School Campus.  The LifeSouth Bloodmobile was on site and accepted donations from 8:00 am until 5:00 p.m. This annual blood drive is hosted by Montgomery Catholic Preparatory School’s high school student government association in honor of the late Coach Tim Turner who valiantly coached several MCPS Middle School sports teams while bravely battling a terminal illness. This year the campus received 50 blood donations for the day.

Coach Turner’s sister, Gena Brasington was on campus for the blood drive. Brasington said “Please let the students and staff know how very much we appreciate their continued support each year in making this cause such a success. We look forward to next year and the big 10th annual blood drive and celebration.”
