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.

With early release days at Hopkinton schools leading to problems downtown over the past year, the Hopkinton Police Department is offering a potential solution, hosting an Early Release Hangout this Friday from noon until 2 p.m. at the Town Common.

As part of the Main Street Corridor Project this week, crews will focus on site cleanup and “punch list” work. Road Safe is scheduled to be on-site for signs (resetting, removing and replacing). Work is scheduled for Saturday, and police details will be on-site directing traffic during this work

The annual Tom McIntyre Turkey Bowl is expanding this year and is seeking teams. The 6-vs.-6, one-handed touch football tournament is scheduled for Friday, Nov. 24, from 9 a.m.-1 p.m.

Town meetings tonight include the Parks & Recreation Commission (5:30), Commissioners of Trust Funds (5:30) and Select Board (6).
