by | Aug 16, 2024 | 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 of the day.

The Trails Committee at its meeting Wednesday discussed maintenance efforts for the Center Trail and future preservation of the land along its sides.

This week’s Baypath Adoptable Animal is Diana, a 2-year-old who “is not only sweet but also incredibly intelligent and highly motivated by treats, making her an ideal candidate for advanced training, agility courses and outdoor activities.”

The Hopkinton Historical Society building on Hayden Rowe Street will be closed for the next three Mondays. During the closure, crews will be completing construction around the building’s exterior.

The annual Blooms, Brews & BBQs event will be held Saturday, Sept. 7, from 11 a.m.-7 p.m. at Weston Nurseries, raising money for the Jimmy Fund at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. There will be local bands, barbecue food, ice cream and alcoholic beverages.
