Richard Clark will do his portrayal of Andrew Carnegie, known to the world as "The King of Steel". Admission is a dish to share. Bring a Salad, Main dish or Dessert to be shared by all. All are welcome and the "dish" is important as this is our Annual Pot Luck Dinner. May 29 Memorial Day is May 29th this year, and the Veteran's Celebration Committee has planned activities starting at 9:30 AM in Woodville, and continuing until noon at the common. Traditionally, many people use this occasion to visit cemeteries and plant flowers there. This is also the time when the local American Legion Post 202 places flags at the graves of veterans. The Legion feels that it is very important not to miss or overlook any veteran buried in Hopkinton. Angelo Colella was one of those who kept this custom alive, especially at the cemeteries where some of Hopkinton's oldest veterans are entombed. Time takes it's toll on these gravestones, and not all veteran's graves are easily identifiable. However, Angelo kept records and he passed the information on, in a notebook, to legion member Mike Shepard shortly before he died. Recently, the legion received a gift from the Joseph J. Colella Foundation [Angelo's brother] which has enabled them to purchase veterans' grave markers. Now all the locations can be permanently marked with this metal disk, which also holds a small American flag. Starting this week, legion members and the scouts will be placing the flags and markers at the cemeteries. If we miss anyone, please let a legion member know, or call Mike Whalen at 508-435-2397 |
