Hopkinton Today: Tuesday, July 12

by | Jul 12, 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.

With Hopkinton currently carrying a medium risk designation for COVID-19, Hopkinton Health Director Shaun McAuliffe is urging residents not to let their guard down. He said attendance at the department’s most recent vaccine clinics was “terrible,” leading to concerns that the town could run the risk of another surge similar to the spring.

Hopkinton Family Day, a community event featuring live entertainment, games, activities and food trucks, and topped off with a fireworks display, is set to return on Sept. 17 at the field behind Hopkinton Middle School.

The Woodville Rod & Gun Club is seeking vendors for its second annual Craft Fair on Sept. 25.

Town meetings tonight include the Select Board (6), Design Review Board (6:30) and Conservation Commission (7).
