Most of the action this week happens early on this week, with the Planning Board and School Board meetings running head-to-head Monday night after a blood drive. The week rounds out with a pair of great movies, one for grown-ups and one for kids.

1. Blood Drive
Mon., Aug. 27: 2-7 p.m., St. John's Church

Pre-register online or call the parish office at 856-858-0298 to schedule your donation. Bring ID and drink plenty of fluids beforehand. Eat iron-rich foods (red meat, fish, poultry, broccoli, beans, raisins and prunes) before and after your donation.

3. School Board Meeting

Among the items on the agenda at this month's meeting—the last before the beginning of the 2012/13 school year—is an announcement of the bid winner for the provision of training services for the district's pilot teacher evaluation project.

4. Collingswood Movie Club
