We were so excited for our daughter Alex who spent three weeks in Rio helping out at the Summer Olympics 2016. She was assigned to Doping Control, and her job before the games began was to track down athletes and chaperone them to get tested. But she wasn’t allowed to tell anyone who she was looking for which made the search quite challenging! Then once the games began, she chaperoned winners to be tested after their event, sometimes staying with them through the medal ceremony and press interviews. What a thrill it was to hand Katie Ledecky a towel after she smashed the world record and won another Gold Medal!
During her stay in Brazil, she did quite a bit of sightseeing, and attended a wide array of Olympic events.
