The Hopkinton Women’s Club will be holding its monthly meeting on Monday, September 19 at 9:30 a.m. at the Hopkinton Public Library beginning with a social gathering and followed by our meeting and program.

PROGRAM: The program will be a talk by Massachusetts author Peter Zheutlin on his latest book SPIN; an historical fiction novel about his great-grand aunt Annie C. Kopchovsky, who circled the world by bicycle in 1894-‘95. The papers described it as “the most extraordinary journey ever undertaken by a woman”. She started her journey in Boston on a 42 pound bicycle to settle a wager about women’s equality and she became one of the most celebrated women of the gay ‘90s.
