The El Paso Municipal Police Officers' Association is gearing up for the 2012 "Battle of the Badges" Law Enforcement Blood Drive Competition and we need your help! 

The "Battle of the Badges" is a way to increase summer blood donations by creating a competition between departments who share in the commitment to help the community. Agencies participating are the El Paso Police Department, the El Paso Fire Department, and the El Paso Count Sheriff's Department.

The EPMPOA encourages all community members to donate blood on behalf of the POLICE.  The competition will take place at Cielo Vista Mall (lower level, near J.C. Penney) on Friday, July 20, 2012 from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM, Saturday, July 21, 2012 from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM and on Sunday, July 22, 2012 from Noon to 6:00 PM.

Donors will be entered into daily raffles (Friday: a pair of movie tickets to see Batman will be given away every hour - Saturday: a $200 Simon Mall gift card - Sunday: a BBQ grill), plus you will be entered for a chance to win a $250 gift card!  Every donor will also receive a large cookie and a food coupon courtesy of Whataburger.

Find the hero in you.... stop by this weekend and donate blood on behalf of the El Paso Police Department Officers, the heros who serve and protect every day.
