A Thank You From the Police Association
All the members of the Hopkinton Police Association would like to thank everyone who participated in one way or another and helped to make the annual fishing derby such a great success. We especially thank all of the donors who made it possible for us to stock the pond, and to purchaser T-shirts and prizes. We also had donors who provided the hamburgers, hotdogs, rolls, drinks, cheese for the hamburgers, chips, water, condiments and the list goes on and on. The Association made a small profit when everything was tallied up which will go towards to cost of the Senior dinner planned for later this year. Again, we thank you all and we acknowledge that the success of this event would not have been possible without so many people who helped us and most importantly all the parents who registered their children and all the children who came to “catch the big one”. See you next year ! |

Above, at supporter Michael Kennedy's home, some of the signs retrieved and ready to be put back where they were stolen from, something that will take hours. Mr. Kennedy needs to visit every location to see whether or not that location was hit.
May 12, 2008 — This morning, residents of North Street awoke to find 70 of candidate Selectman Chair Muriel Kramer's political signs across the road, having been stolen from the properties where they were displayed. "We are going to look into it like any other larceny," said Hopkinton Police Sgt. Charles Wallace. "We can't say what methods we are going to use, but emails are going out to all of the officers to be on the lookout," he said. "A couple of years ago, there were political signs were stolen, and we caught the people who did it. "It is a larceny and people could be charged with a criminal offense. Larceny over $250 is a felony," Sgt. Wallace said.
According to Mrs. Kramer, the signs cost $4 each. ($4x70=$280) |

Massachusetts Breast Cancer Coalition’s June 21, 2008 7:30 am- Noon Hopkinton State Park
Mr. Clark, is helping set the stage again this year, for Against The Tide 2008 along with his family. The Clark family will be at Hopkinton State Park on June 20th, the day before the event, placing buoys in the water to prepare a course for the swimmers. Ken Clark knows first hand the importance of the focus on prevention at MBCC. He says “The MBCC mission is a philosophy that instantly hits home with me. It is an honor for my family and I to assist the MBCC in this very small way to make their event a success.” Against The Tide is a fundraising event which raises money for Breast Cancer prevention research and education through the Massachusetts Breast Cancer Coalition (MBCC) and its sister research organization, Silent Spring Institute.
Breast cancer now strikes more women in the world than any other type of
cancer. In the past 50 years, the lifetime risk of breast cancer has
nearly tripled in the United States. In the 1940’s, a woman’s lifetime
risk of breast cancer was 1 in 22. In the year 2002, the risk was 1 in 8
and is presently 1 in 7. The increasing prevalence reinforces the
necessity to reverse the trend and prevent breast cancer from occurring
in the first place. |

percent of all Boy Scouts achieve the rank of Eagle Scout by age 18.
Completion of a leadership service project is an Eagle Scout
requirement, and the project has to benefit the community. The scouts
can use their troop to complete the projects, but the Eagle Scout is
supposed to assume leadership and supervise the work. Eagle Scouts must
earn at least 21 merit badges, including 12 required badges in subjects
such as first aid, citizenship and personal fitness, but the cornerstone
is the community service project. |

Legacy Farms Well Water ENF Filing Withdrawn
May 8, 2007 — According to Steven Zieff, Project Manager for Legacy Farms the Town of Hopkinton DPW Board and Legacy Farms LLC jointly elected to withdraw the Alprilla Farms Well Water ENF (Environmental Notification Form) filing yesterday. The decision on the filing was due tomorrow. The DEP-Approved pump test must be conducted during drier months, after which the ENF will be resubmitted. "By resubmitting the ENF with the Pump Test results, a number of issues which were identified in the filing, will be definitive," Mr. Zieff said in an email. "This will enable a more expedited MEPA process for the benefit of the Alprilla Farms’ Well filing," he added. The permit seeks to withdraw 432,000 gallons from the 40 acre, town-owned property, but needs approval from the MEPA. |
