Residents are welcome to stop by to talk in person about any town matters. Residents can also have coffee and see the Council on Aging in action (a vibrant organization with lots going on).

Reading to Mrs. Gutierrez’ 4th graders this week, in the jester hat the students chose for me –
Email from Leah Beaudoin, Library Media Specialist, Dale Street School –
Thank you so much for volunteering to read at Dale Street School this week. You made Read Across America week incredibly special and memorable for our students. Students in Mrs. G’s class loved getting to know you and appreciated your willingness to donate your time to them. They also shared how much they enjoyed listening to the book you read, thank you for giving them time to just sit and listen to a good book.
We strive to teach our students the importance of being a strong community member. In a short 20 minute block you showed our students what it means to be an active community member in Medfield. This town is a special place because of you and the example you set for our students.
Happy Reading!

Medfield Select Board member
I started this blog to share the interesting and useful information that I saw while doing my job as a Medfield select board member. I thought that my fellow Medfield residents would also find that information interesting and useful as well. This blog is my effort to assist in creating a system to push the information out from the Town House to residents. Let me know if you have any thoughts on how it can be done better.
For information on my other job as an attorney (personal injury, civil litigation, estate planning and administration, and real estate), please feel free to contact me at 617-969-1500 or Osler.Peterson@OslerPeterson.com.
