Hello Hopkinton!  

We need your help!  Due to budget constraints, there will be NO LIGHTS on the Hopkinton Common this year.  No cheer, magic, or awe that the warm glow of twinkle lights bring to the dark of winter. 

Your generous donation will cover the following:

  • Thousands of strands of lights for the gazebo, fountain, bushes & trees
  • 1800' of power lines to support the lights
  • A 5 man crew to install the lights over 3 days
  • The rental of a lift 
  • Daily Maintenance of the lights through-out the season.

Please consider supporting this effort.  It is important to the morale and spirit of our town as the darkness of winter descends.  

All donations will go directly to the Town of Hopkinton Parks & Recreation Department to cover the lighting installation, maintenance and cost.  

Installation will be designed and handled by our very own Mark Mercer and Under Pressure Power Washing Inc.  

Any questions - please reach out to Juanita Hanson jhanson707@yahoo.com.   Thank you!

Update:  Lights are going up!  The magic is building!

Mark is on the common today to begin the install.  I stopped by and bumped into Jon from Parks & Rec.  We are all so excited that this is happening.  It is all thanks to you!

Please join us this Saturday 12/06 2-4:30 for the Hopkinton Girl Scout Caroling on the Common event.  The Girl Scouts will kick it off with Caroling at 2pm and end with Santa flipping the switch at 4:30pm to light up the common before he heads back to the North Pole! 

Note: be sure to stop by the "Save the Lights" table - we will have a small token of appreciation for you!

Jon, Mark & I are so grateful for your support!

We did it!!!  We did it!!!  I am so beyond grateful for all of you.  Thank you.  

As we are at 98% of our original goal, which includes one business donation from Property Cousins of $1500 and does not yet include the fundraiser donations from BoMain and HopYo - I am closing the portal to donations.  The business donations will go toward making the common even more beautiful! 

All collected funds from all sources will be donated directly to the Parks & Rec Department who will engage Under Pressure for the light installation project.  

We hope to see you all at the Hopkinton Girl Scouts Caroling on the Common 12/06 2-4:30 for the lighting ceremony.  The community spirit is truly a wonderful thing to see.  Thank you, thank you, thank you!
