Vancouver on radio on the web
Among the interviews about Vancouver that I did during the Olympics, one was with Ian and Tonya Fitzpatrick, hosts of a weekly show on the web that “helps empower travelers to have fun while leaving positive footprints by fostering global citizenship and creating cross-cultural understanding.”
In this episode, they interviewed Roger Bayley on the Olympic Village and Svein Romstad, the Secretary General of the International Luge Federation.
Svein will discuss how the sport of Luge has changed, the Federation’s response following the tragic accident in Whistler and what preparations are being made for 2016 Sochi. Roger Bayley, Design Manager of the Olympic Village will talk about this ground-breaking project and the future plans for this development. Then, Gordon Price, Director of The City Program at Simon Fraser University in Vancouver will discuss the city’s culture and sustainability efforts and the lasting legacy of the Games.
