Email from Jean Letai –

Subject: Police Escort for Medfield Olympian tomorrow

Dear Gus, Pete, and Eileen –

Just reaching out to let you know that my daughter Julie Letai, who represented Medfield while competing in the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, will be returning to town tomorrow (Wednesday, April 20). She will be with one of her Olympic short-track speedskating teammates (Kristen Santos from CT) as part of US Speedskating’s Tour of Olympians. 

The Medfield police plan to surprise them with an escort around 12 noon — as they drive from 109 near Millis, left on North St, and right on Pine St. I know it’s tricky to plan the precise timing, but we would be happy for any Medfielders to wave at them anywhere along the way!

They will also be at the Boston Sports Institute in Wellesley from 6-8pm tomorrow, meeting and greeting the public on ice from 6-7 and off the ice from 7-8.

All best,

Jean Letai
