We Depend on You
The dates for the 2009 Georgia Golden Olympics are fast approaching! We’ve spent months getting everything ready for this event and the seniors from all around have been training hard. This is a non-qualifying year, which means that the competition this year will set the bar, so to speak, for the competition in next year’s games. The 2010 GGO will be the qualifying event for the National Senior Games in 2011 in Houston, TX.
The Georgia Golden Olympics Planning Committee, all volunteers ourselves, works with organizations throughout the state to promote an interest in lifetime sports, recreation and physical activity. From the most serious athlete to the determined participant, we offer a wide array of events that provide physical activity, fun and socialization. However, we cannot offer an event of this magnitude (for some 400 participants) without the support of local volunteers like you to carry out each of the events. Therefore, the success of this endeavor is GREATLY dependent on your help.

Volunteer Reception
This year, to show our appreciation for your support of the Georgia Golden Olympics and the work that you will be doing for us, we will have a Munch & Mingle Volunteer Reception, Tuesday September 22nd from 7:00pm - 9:00pm at the Wellston Center, 155 Maple Street.
We will give you your Volunteer T-shirts, Certificates of Appreciation, maps, details of your responsibilities and answer any questions you may have. I personally encourage everyone who submits a Volunteer Registration Form to attend. If you are unable to attend, please contact me (Lola Frost). We can arrange for someone else to pick up your package, or hold it for you to pick up at the Volunteer Desk at the GGO Registration Site, Senior Activity Center, 152 Maple Street any time throughout the events.
