Hopkinton Veteran's Breakfast Friday August 2nd at Senior Center

By contributor,

The peak of summer will bring together local veterans for their monthly breakfast, 2 August 2019, at 0900 hours, at the Senior Center. As always there will be great chow and wonderful camaraderie.

Comrades who passed away during July will be remembered, and names of those who are on "Sick Call" will be updated. This is a good opportunity to be generous with our time to visit and/or to send cards or notes to our ailing buddies. Gestures that brighten the day of a fellow veteran are always appreciated.
