Completing your family has never been easier - TWO YOUNG DOGS FOR THE ADOPTION FEE OF ONE! Ever since their trip from Korea a few months ago, Liam and Nelly have bonded to one another. We've seen their love/friendship bloom and we are in awe of how much they depend on one another. They would thrive in a home together and their adopters would get two, easygoing cuddle bugs who just want to be loved and snuggled up in the comfort of a home.

Hillers Soccer and Girls Volleyball have been doing a whole lot of winning, here’s the latest in this week’s Hiller Sports report. View highlights from Hillers sports action from this past Friday, Saturday and Monday.

HCAM-TV, the Hopkinton Freedom Team, local filmmakers, the 26.2 Foundation, and residents and friends of Hopkinton have come together to send a message of love and support to Boston Marathon runners and their supporters around the world welcoming them back to our town, renowned as the starting line of the oldest and one of the most famous marathons in the world. Hopkinton is common ground for people from all over the globe who run the Boston Marathon and congregate for the start of the race.

The town municipal well fields offer a number of great walking trails at Fruit Street and Charles McIntyre Lane, off Lake Whitewall. However we have noticed an increase in the amount of pet waste that is being left behind in the direct recharge area of the wells. This waste poses a potential risk to contamination of the water supply. We ask that anyone who is walking their dog to avoid the direct vicinity of the wells, and in other areas to please pick up after their pet to ensure the safety of our drinking water supply.
