The Hopkinton Community Spelling Bee organized by the Hopkinton Education Foundation (HEF) and the Hopkinton Parent Teacher Association (HPTA) is a town-wide, family-friendly event which will involve the entire community. Businesses, community groups, schools, politicians, and neighborhood groups will compete as teams as they spell, cheer, laugh and have a great time raising funds to support public education in Hopkinton.
