Blood Drive to honor memory of Tara Atkins

In tribute to the late Tryon Dispatcher Tara Atkins, her family and friends are organizing a blood drive in her memory. Tara served as a dispatcher for the Town of Tryon for close to ten years and had previously worked at the Greer, SC Police Department. She dedicated her life to public service and sadly passed away in July of this year. 

The blood drive will be held on December 17 from 11am - 4pm at Nina Simone Plaza, 54 S Trade Street. For every donation The Blood Connection will contribute $10 to the Tara Atkins Memorial Scholarship Fund at the Polk County Community Foundation.
