I was an Olympic Volunteer
Synopsis
More than 70,000 volunteers will be required for the London Olympics. My purpose in writing this book is to describe my experience as a volunteer in the 1996 Atlanta Centenary Olympic Games. Those three weeks were the most thrilling and exciting days of my life.
Author's Biography
Mike Cooper was with IBM for 27 years, retiring in the early nineties. As a major sponsor for the 1996 Olympic Games, the company invited retirees to become volunteers, and Mike took advantage of this to go to Atlanta.
Reviews
The book certainly brings to life what it's like to be involved at Games, and I hope everyone involved in London feels the same way about their experience next year, as you clearly do 15 years on. John Inverdale
