RIVALS FOR LIFE:
Tenth Annual Civil War Blood Drive

Since 2002, the American Red Cross, Lane Blood Center (formerly Lane Memorial Blood Bank), Oregon State University Alumni Association and the University of Oregon Alumni Association have partnered in a two-week campaign to increase community blood donations.

There have been some close contests over the years as the traveling trophy passes between the Beavers and the Ducks. No matter the score, at the end of Civil War, hospital patients are the real winners knowing that blood is available if it's needed.
