On the opening day of the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver I volunteered to go into an Elementary school to talk about my Olympic experience and take some photos of a grade 1/2 class with the Olympic Torch.
I downloaded the Olympic Fanfare theme by John Williams and played over the speakers in the classroom as I entered in my white suit and torch.
The kids were wowed, and I felt pretty cool myself. I gave them a few details of the run, but I had more questions for them and I was impressed with their knowledge and interest in the Games.
Then it was on to the photos in the back of the class where I set up a seamless and used a flag provided by the teacher. The kids were really attentive and keen to hold and pose with the torch.
Because of FOIP - Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act, I decided to show only one of the images, but will include some of the priceless thank-you cards from the kids.
