On Wednesday last week the rest of the SMJ’s, some of the guys from A New Direction, Chris Skinner , Benji Lanyado and I were lucky enough to go on a tour of the Olympic park, private mini-bus and all! I had a flipcam with me, however the good old British weather and bumpy road surface combined led to some pretty shaky footage which I had assumed I wasn’t going to use. What I’m trying to say is that it’s no masterpiece but it gives a good feel of how far along the park is and some nice facts I picked up on during the tour which was narrated wonderfully by our tour guide Andy.
Here at Headstart we’ve been busy and today I was lucky enough to interview Nathan Hanson, a fellow member of the Social Media group and a young athlete. We spoke about what he thinks should be done with the Olympic Park after the worlds media, spectators and athletes have packed up and gone home.
An audio preview of the interview.
Nathan believes that the key part of the Parks’s and the Olympic legacy as a whole is making sure that the space is used for community projects and sports.
For many Londoners, Nathan included, ensuring that the Olympics help to foster the talents of tomorrows as well as todays aspiring athletes for many years to come is what will truly make the games a once in a lifetime event.
