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.

It’s often been said that you start growing old when you stop learning. If that’s true, some globetrotting folks at the Hopkinton Senior Center and their chef-turned-instructor-turned-tour guide, Nathalie Scott, will be forever young.

Jeffrey LaBroad, the new assistant superintendent of Hopkinton Public Schools, decided at age 4 that he wanted to become a teacher. He never changed his mind.

This week’s Library Corner includes information on an upcoming Red Cross blood drive as well as programs about owls, fused glass and henna.

Town meetings tonight include the Select Board (6), Housing Authority (6) and Historical Commission (7).

Photo of the Day: Mimzy, a basenji — a breed originally from the Congo that doesn’t bark but yodels when happy — enjoys a recent walk at Hopkinton State Park.
