OTC athletes invited to lead parade

UPDATE: In May, readers Bob A. and Roy Hetzel proposed that the Olympians and future Olympians at the Olympic Training Center be acknowledged with a parade. A blogger suggested the parade could be tied to the Rocky Mountain State Games.

Tom Osborne of the Colorado Springs Sports Corporation responded that it was a good idea and they are contacting the training center “to invite the athletes that are training at the OTC to join us and lead the Parade of Athletes at the Rocky Mountain State Games.” Way to go, readers!

The games are staged throughout our area Aug. 4-6. For information: thesportscorp.org/rmsg
