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.

At its meeting on Wednesday, the Parks & Recreation Commission discussed the Fruit Street fields turf construction, CPC-funded projects, cricket pitch plans and summer programming. “Nothing but good news on Fruit Street,” Parks & Recreation Director Jay Guelfi reported, with the turf fields replacement project scheduled to be completed on Aug. 19.

This week’s Police Log includes one arrest along with reports of youths causing trouble at a Main Street business, a road rage incident and multiple stolen catalytic converters.
