“Well, Janey, your mother and I were practicing mouth-to-mouth when . . . “

A local couple may use that EXACT story fifteen years down the road while sitting around the table with their kids.  It turns out, the Valentines Day “Singles CPR Night” at the Red Cross successfully made a match.  While the blood donation hub won’t give specifics about the couple, we do know the happy duo have been together since meeting, six weeks ago, to learn life saving techniques.

Thanks in part to the stellar matchmaking, the Red Cross is offering another singles’ night in a couple weeks.  April 22nd at the Ace Hotel.  Participants get free snacks and drinks, plus you’ll know that everyone in the room is available.
