Every month, on the first Friday, the local veterans meet for a free full breakfast at the Hopkinton Senior Center, 28 Mayhew St. These meals are sponsored by organizations and individuals as way to say “thank you” to our veterans. The veterans chat, usually have a baseball question or two and share experiences.

On Aug. 30 the veterans discussed their experiences in Vietnam.
