5 Things You Need to Know Today: July 2

Five things for your pre-4th Tuesday in JP.

1. Bikes Not Bombs: The JP bicycle institution is holding a fundraiser July 2 at Sacco's Bowl Haven/Flatbread in Somerville tonight.

2. Open/Closed: If you're business is open (or for that matter: closed) on July 4 or 5, let us know.

3. Fireworks: Where will you watch this year?

4. Jimmy Fund Little League: Little leaguers of New England are being encouraged to grab a bat and glove and take a swing at cancer by joining the Jimmy Fund Little League Program presented by Extra Innings to help support adult and pediatric cancer care and research at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. The program, in its 27th year, gives kids a chance to play baseball or softball after their regular season ends. Play runs through July and August. Learn more at www.jimmyfund.org/littleleague.
