Hopkinton Today: Tuesday, Dec. 19

by | Dec 19, 2023 | 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.

Monday’s heavy rain and wind gusts of 50 mph prompted the Hopkinton Fire Department to ask residents to use caution if they have to travel. The storm forced Hopkinton schools to close early due to a power outage.

This week’s Business Profile highlights The Communities at Golden Pond, a trailblazing assisted living residence that opened on West Main Street in 1993.

Town meetings tonight include the Board of Assessors (5:30), Select Board (6), Elementary School Building Committee (6), Design Review Board (6:30), Conservation Commission (7) and Community Preservation Committee (7).

Photo of the Day: Members of the Hopkinton Basketball Association Grade 8 girls travel team baked cookies and donated them along with pies and pizza to personnel at the police station, fire station, post office and library.
