Planning for Olympics anniversary moves forward

By by Ken Stanford
GAINESVILLE - Planning continues for the 10th anniversary of the 1996 Olympics in Gainesville and will include a display at the Northeast Georgia History Center.

The exhibit will focus on the canoe, kayak and rowing events that occurred on Lake Lanier.

The people putting all this together are looking for memorabilia that could be loaned for the display. Included such things as volunteer and athlete photos as well as a variety of uniforms. Photographs are also high on the list - and videos, especially one that contains the start command which kicked off 14 days of events on the lake.
