Hopkinton Today: Tuesday, Feb. 7

by | Feb 7, 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 and video of the day.

Leading off Independent Thoughts, 47 years after relocating to Hopkinton from Milford, and 115 years since its founding, Community Covenant Church held its final service on Dec. 11. Plagued by declining attendance and an unsuccessful merger with a regional organization, the church at the corner of West Elm Street and West Main Street (diagonally across from the Price Chopper plaza) closed its doors after parishioners determined it was not sustainable.

A larger-than normal roster for the Hopkinton High School wrestling team produced double-digit victories during the dual meet schedule, and the Hillers’ five captains are eyeing deep postseason runs of their own.

This week’s Library Corner includes information on a Black History Month author talk and a program about historical Black communities and George Washington’s Cambridge camp.

Our latest Business Profile highlights Christopher Stevenson, an Edward Jones financial advisor who is driven by a desire to help clients meet their financial goals and live fulfilling lives.

The Hopkinton Area Land Trust (HALT) is offering a scholarship of up to $1,000 to a graduating high school student or students from Hopkinton whose intent is to major in conservation, ecology, natural resources/wildlife management or the environmental sciences.

Town meetings tonight include the Select Board (6), Elementary School Building Committee (6), Conservation Commission (7) and Historical Commission (7).
