Day 1 of the Paras is very busy!


After meeting the Colombian Chef de Mission and his team when they arrived yesterday, today was the first full day as a Gamesmaker. A long and exciting day which involved a lot of persuading other people to do things for us ahead of other teams. We were certainly working well together and are fortunate to be working with a well organised Latin team. After checking 70 rooms were ready in every detail and that over 200 door keys worked, we were rewarded with the job of putting up the Colombian flags so that the athletes would feel welcome. Finally we welcomed the first group of athletes and their support teams, followed later by the wheelchair basketball team with the rest of the athletes arriving tomorrow.
