BODIES…The Exhibition joins forces once again with United Blood Services (UBS) to bring a second Holiday blood drive to the Tropicana Hotel and Casino on Saturday, December 8 from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. All donors will receive one free admission to BODIES…The Exhibition, plus the choice of one admission to either Folies Bergere or Xtreme Magic with Dirk Arthur.
According to UBS, the holidays present an even greater demand due to fewer donations and an increase in accidents and traumas.

· United Blood Services Las Vegas provides over 300 donations on average per day.
· United Blood Services is the only blood collection organization in Las Vegas and serves 28 hospitals in Southern Nevada, as well as California and Arizona.

"Our goal is to give people a chance to take time out of their busy holiday schedules and give back to those who need it most," said Tom Zaller, vice president of Premier Exhibitions, Inc.
