All
of these sites should be checked on a regular basis, but especially
the Olympics-related sites; as Olympics preparations continue to evolve
there will need to be regular informational updates. Stay informed.
We're about to play host to the biggest event this city has ever seen,
and none of us will remain unaffected.
