Thanks to everyone who came by the office today to give blood at the "Rock-N-Roll Up Your Sleeves" blood drive held here at Socket! We were able to donate 20 units of blood and had 4 first time donors in the office.

The American Red Cross estimates that each blood donation saves an average of 3 lives.

Ready to rock and roll up your sleeve for a good cause? Socket's Annual Blood Drive is next week, and we're looking for donors!

The Red Cross will be here on Thursday, June 28th from 11:00 am - 4:00 pm in our conference room.

Anyone presenting to donate will get a sweet T-Shirt, plus you'll be entered into a raffle for a Gibson Guitar.

And as a special incentive for young donors, anyone aged 16-21 can enter to win a $5,000 scholarship. (Please note, anyone under the age of 18 will need parental permission to donate.)

On June 15th and 16th, Socket representatives were busy hitting the bricks at the annual Fulton Street Fair in Fulton, MO.

We had a lot of fun handing out balloons and candy. Next year we'll try investing in some posters that don't act like giant sails, though. They can be difficult to catch in high winds!

We were excited to be able to talk to Fulton residents, many of whom have been watching crews construct our new Fiber network. People were anxious to see if their homes were in our service area, and when construction in their area would start.
