Good morning, Framingham.

The City of Framingham and Framingham Public Schools are named a 2025 Mass Save Climate Leader for cutting energy use and lowering emissions — the award will be presented at the State House on October 15th.

The City of Framingham was awarded a $100,000 MassTrails grant to build the middle section of the Carol Getchell accessible trail along the Sudbury River — an extra $30,000 from the Solomon Foundation brings total funding to $130,000.

The project will expand trail access and support full inclusion for all residents.

Franklin senior running back Alex Weber was voted Week 5 Player of the Week after gaining 142 yards and scoring two touchdowns on five carries in a win over Algonquin.
