Martin Gelinas and Alex Edler Day aka Day 14 at VVL

Greeting Alexa Loo, spectating athletes, hockey players, and the Norwegian men's curling team, getting a Swedish flag from a driver, meeting the nice Newfie police officer, and getting hugs and greetings from Tamara and T = most memorable birthday yet. :D

Message from the CEO English / Francais

Through your passion, energy and relentless commitment, you have proven to be the heart and soul of these Games. The Vancouver 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games had volunteers at every touchpoint — some of you have been with us for years, some for only a brief time. No matter the length of time, your contribution has been critical to creating a transformational historic event for Canada. Your willingness to take part has made our nation better.

To recognize your involvement, we present you with a Vancouver 2010 Winter Games participation certificate. This small token of appreciation honours your selfless spirit and your journey with the 2010 Winter Games. You were truly the best of the best and your country is proud of you.

On behalf of Vancouver 2010, thank you for everything you have given to these Games. As you reflect on your experience from this moment forward, I trust you will feel that your personal contribution was as critical to the success of the Games as any other. To me, you are a genuine Canadian hero.

Thank you.

John Furlong
Chief Executive Officer
Vancouver Organizing Committee for the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games
