Olympic figure-skating champion Sarah Hughes will get a rousing welcome home from neighbors, classmates and friends Sunday with a parade through Great Neck, N.Y., and a rally at Great Neck North High School.
Speeches by politicians will be limited to one minute, said Richard Arenella, superintendent of the Great Neck parks department.
“This day is about Sarah,” he said. “It was planned long before Sarah left for Salt Lake City. The fact that she won a gold medal makes it a big media event, but for us it’s about honoring Sarah.”
