2002 Winter Games in Utah: Ogden’s Olympic Legacy

Gary Willden Quote

Item

"When the Olympics came, like thousands of other people, I volunteered. You may not know, but Weber State shut down for those weeks of the month of the Olympics and the Paralympics. So I volunteered, went through all the training, got my uniforms and everything. Then my assignment as a recreation professional was at the Olympic Village. So I was in charge of the fun for the athletes from all over the world. I'd set up tables with games and ping pong and billiards and all these activities for the athletes." Quote by Gary Willden
