Murray is no stranger to Framingham. The former Worcester mayor makes frequent visits to the largest town in the Commonwealth.

State Rep. Sannicandro writes  in an invite that went out that "Murray is a great friend to MetroWest, investing $22 Million into a new MassBay Campus, $9 Million to improved transportation infrastructure and re-opening Ashland State Park. Come support Tim because he supports us."

Some of the host committee for tonight's event include Selectman Dennis Giombetti, Planning Board member Tom Mahoney, Rep. Chris Walsh, Sen. Karen Spilka, Selectman Charlie Sisitsky, former representative Pam Richardson, Nanette Magnani, Selectman Laurie Lee, Phil and Valerie Ottaviani and Charles & Kathleen Stefanini.
