Message to all who were in support or actively involved in Chicago’s 2016 Bid – THANK YOU. Without your contribution, efforts and interest, Chicago would not have been a contender to host the 2016 Summer Olympic Games. Although we did not win, we can only be proud to have finished in the top 4 and to have had the opportunity to showcase our city to the world.
I think one of the most noteworthy memories that I took with me from the Olympics is the contribution of all the volunteers. The Olympics would never work without the thousands of volunteers. Having experienced it firsthand, I was really amazed, and inspiried. This may come as a surprise, but I remember the faces of the volunteers more vividly, than those of the medal winners. I remember the friendships created more than the outcome.
HONORING OUR FRIEND AND OLYMPIC BROTHER, SPIRO PINA, 1973-2009
Spiro competed on the Hellenic Olympic Luge team in Lillehammer, Norway 1994 and Nagano, Japan 1998. The Hellenic Bobsleigh Team honor’s his memory. We extend our prayers to his entire family. We honor our Olympic brother: http://www.startribune.com/local/stpaul/41542367.html?page=1&c=y
