Hopkinton Today: Thursday, Oct. 13

by | Oct 13, 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.

A spirit of tenacity, generosity and inspiration will be alive on Oct. 15 when Michael’s Run returns to Hopkinton. Attendees and staff of the Michael Lisnow Respite Center as well as family and community members walk, run or roll the 5K route, which begins and ends at the Town Common.

This week’s Hillers Thrillers Athlete Spotlight shines on Braden Hicks, who has been a big contributor to the football team’s 4-1 start despite playing with a broken wrist.

The latest Police Log includes one arrest along with reports of a diesel fuel spill on West Main Street, a road rage incident and cats stuck in trees.

With this being National Fire Prevention Week, Hopkinton Fire Chief William Miller used a recent incident as a reminder to residents to ensure they have smoke alarms installed inside every sleeping room in addition to outside each sleeping area and on every level of the home.

Town meetings tonight include the School Committee (7) and Open Space Preservation Commission (7).
