Sandy Beach officially opened for the summer season. Some of the new features include new playground equipment, trails, an overlook of the lake and added handicap accessibility. The playground features a volleyball court, a gaga pit, and an octagon shaped dodge-ball pit. The first phase of the 3 phase plan was clearing the beach of litter and "unneeded vegetation" and adding sand to the beach. Chair of the Parks and Recreation Commission Bob Dobinski stated renovations to the park have been ongoing for the past 4 years. Dobinski stated: "We look forward to continue to serve the residents of Hopkinton and to support the residents of Hopkinton with their recreation and leisure activities".
