Hopkinton Today: Thursday, Oct. 20

by | Oct 20, 2022 | Featured: Features, Hopkinton Today

Good morning, Hopkinton! Welcome to the daily update we call Hopkinton Today — a quick recap of yesterday’s news, highlights of what’s on tap, and a photo and video of the day.

The Conservation Commission at its 90-minute meeting Tuesday night unanimously approved a request by the Department of Public Works for an 8-foot winter drawdown of Lake Maspenock for two weeks as a strategy to control invasive weed growth.

The latest Police Log includes reports of an assault on a school bus, a stolen scooter and an individual attacked by a female and a dog.

Hopkinton’s Indian population recently celebrated Navratri with events in the Legacy Farms North neighborhood. About 400 residents participated in the Oct. 1 main event, which was composed of folk dances, delicious food and games.

This week’s Hiller’s Thrillers Athlete Spotlight shines on Camille Perlov, who has scored 17 goals to lead the Hopkinton High School field hockey team to a record of 7-2-4.

Town meetings tonight include the Lake Maspenock Weed Management and Control Advisory Group (5).
