The 2010 Winter Games will need some 25,000 volunteers to help run the Games. The 2010 Bid Corporation was fortunate to have collected more than 50,000 names of those who are interested in volunteering in 2010. The list of names will be turned over to the Organizing Committee for the Olympic Games (OCOG) which will develop a formal volunteer program, likely in 2008. There will be a competition for volunteer positions, much like applying for a job.

The Olympic rings and branding can not be used by anyone other than the IOC and official Olympic and Paralympic Games sponsors.

Now that the Bid phase is over, the 2010 Bid logo can no longer be used, even by Bid supporters.

Quite the contrary. Participants have described the Gay Games as a positive life-altering experience. As the quote above from the Vancouver newspaper indicates, the Gay Games change perceptions for the better. London powerlifter Chris Morgan, for example, got his competitive start in the Gay Games and has gone on to achieve world class status in his sport, and widespread acceptance in his community. The Games are primarily designed to empower their participants, but certainly the g...

The Gay Games, which started 1982, were conceived of in 1980 by founder Dr. Tom Waddell as a "vehicle of change." For one quarter of a century, the Games have built a legacy of changing cultural, social and political attitudes towards LGBT people across the globe, at the same time empowering thousands and thousands with the transforming benefits of sports competition. In 1981, gay athletes were a hidden community within the greater, marginalized LGBT community. All of that changed when th...

If anything I used to think of myself as asexual. I now realize I do very much want a life partner, but more for emotional support and hugs than anything. I think I would be more likely to get what I'm looking for from a male partner, but I don't especially like most men as people. Hmmmm. For more on this, see orientation.htm.
