The 10th annual blood drive in honor of fallen New York State Trooper Christopher Skinner is set for next week.

The drive will run from 12:30 to 5:30 p.m. at the Five Mile Point Fire Company in Kirkwood on Monday.

A 13-year veteran of the New York State Police, Skinner was also a volunteer firefighter at Five Mile Point.
