The Olympic Opening Ceremony Celebration at White Rock Community Center
February 12, 2010
What an amazing community the City of White Rock is! As a community we are so committed to our sea side town and a perfect example of this was the celebrations that surrounded the Olympic Torch relay as it passed through White Rock.
I had the honor of being one of the committee members of the Spirit of BC for White Rock. Our task for the past year has been to help bring the Olympic spirit to the area by way of distributing funds for different celebrations and events. It has been a real treat for me to see all the efforts of so many people come to fruition in the last week.
