Miss Oregon 2011 Returns to College for OSU Blood Drive




Miss Oregon 2011 Caroline McGowan, while taking an interim year from college at Oregon State University during her reign, returned to campus on Monday, February 20, 2012 for the first day of the Feb. 20-23 Winter Term Blood Drive, one of four quarterly blood drives coordinated by the incredible OSU Blood Drive Association! (see photo below)

As Miss Oregon, McGowan is the official hostess for the state, running on the platform of the American Red Cross. Watch her KBVR interview below to see how she inspired students and faculty by speaking about the need for blood donors, providing photo opportunities for those in attendance and even posed with Buddy the Blood Drop mascot!

McGowan, a member of Delta Gamma Sorority, began her path to pageantry in the Miss Linn-Benton competition and was crowned Miss Oregon on July 2, 2011 in Seaside, Oregon.

The Winter Term Blood Drive at OSU will be held February 20-23, 2012 with donor hours from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM daily at the Oregon State University Memorial Union Ballroom. Area students, faculty, alumni and more can give blood, volunteer their time or support the event through a combination of both, like veteran volunteer, blood donor and alumni Byron Womack!
