Five Things: Blood Drive in Tewksbury Supports Stonehamites Battling Cancer

1. Charitable cause: A blood drive is slated to run from 1:30 to 7:30 p.m. Tuesday at the Tewksbury Country Club, 1880 Main St., Tewksbury. "This drive is in honor of Nicholas Barbaro, Ashley Cashell, Scott Einarson, Lyndsey Pettengill, and all the children being treated now at Children’s Hospital and the Jimmy Fund Clinic," wrote Mark Cashell in an email to Stoneham Patch. "These are our children and they are all here today because of people like you who donated blood when they needed it to live and be strong enough to receive treatment during their fight against cancer."

2. In case you missed it: A Wakefield man was arrested on a warrant charging him with credit card fraud, according to our latest .
