Blood is a precious resource and Cross Creek Ranch invites area residents to give generously. The community is sponsoring a fall blood drive, 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., Saturday Oct. 24.

Gulf Coast Regional Blood Center will be on-site at the community fitness center at 6450 Cross Creek Bend Lane. Donors will receive juice and cookies and be entered in a raffle to win a gift card.

Potential donors must be at least 17 years old and weigh at least 110 pounds. Those who are age 16 and weigh 122 pounds or more can donate with parental consent. The event is open to the public.
