GREEN BAY (NBC 26) -- The Green Bay Packers and American Red Cross are set to host appointment-only blood drives each Friday in June at the Johnsonville Tailgate Village.

The drives, which will not be accepting walk-in donors without appointments, will be held Friday, June 12, 19, and 26, from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.

To schedule an appointment, donors can simply download the Red Cross Blood Donor App, visit the drive page at https://rcblood.org/2zqXHRX or enter Sponsor Code: PACKERS at RedCrossBlood.org. Donors can also schedule an appointment by calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767).

A news release from the Packers says all donors are required to wear a face covering or mask. Donors are asked to bring one to their donation appointment; those without masks will be provided with one.

Lambeau Field is still closed off to the public due to coronavirus concerns.
