Hopkinton Today: Tuesday, Sept. 20

by | Sep 20, 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.

About 18 participants joined an online kickoff meeting Monday night to learn more about the process going forward for the Elmwood School replacement project. In addition to introducing the key players from Vertex and Perkins Eastman, who will plan and design the project if it gets funded, Superintendent Carol Cavanaugh highlighted a number of reasons for the undertaking at this time.

“At Parks & Rec, the focus is on fun, healthy activities and participation,” says Jay Guelfi, the department’s director. “The idea of our programs is to introduce kids to new things, to get them interested and to make sure they all have the opportunity to participate.”

The Hopkinton Parent Teacher Organization (HPTO) is hosting the Tall and Small Pumpkin Ball for Grades 4-5 on Sunday, Oct. 2, from 5-7 p.m. at the Hopkins School gymnasium and cafetorium.

Town meetings tonight include the Board of Assessors (5:30) and Select Board (6).
