HPD Chief Matthew Stone summarizes the Department’s achievements in September and looks ahead to October and November 2021.

Steve and Gabrielle Proia opened their business in Holliston in 2016. Since then they have supported a wide range of organizations including the Police Department, Holliston Football and Youth Baseball, the Boy Scouts, Tim’s Trot, Fatima Shrine, the High School Senior Class, the Historical Society’s Harvest Fair and Car Show, Project Just Because, the Food Pantry, Celebrate Holliston and many, many more.

At the recent Holliston Historical Society Harvest Fair, many people saw the photographs on the walls in the main meeting room of the house. The baseball photos featured teams from the 1890s right up to recent years. One photograph came in for extra scrutiny. The 1939 Merchants team portrays 13 men plus a bat boy tucked in the first row.

Here is a listing of 11 of the 22 Holliston properties that transferred ownership during September.

The Holliston Police Department has scheduled its sixth Citizen’s Police Academy for October 14th through November 18th.  The focus of this six-week academy is to educate citizens about the Holliston Police Department, its organization, operations and role in the community.
