After an almost 3 month break...

Obviously I fell off the posting wagon a few months back. That was about the time things started getting hectic finishing up the semester, figuring out internship travel plans, and life in general. So many apologies and I am going to see if I can get this bus rolling again.

As of now I have been in Bonn, Germany for four weeks now and finishing up my third week interning at the International Paralympic Committe. So far I have been working on projects for the 2014 Sochi Winter, and the 2012 London Paralympic Games. It has been great learning how these huge events are structured and the hard work the people here put in every day.

There are a couple of big events coming up I wanted to share with everyone. First is the International Paralympic Day 2009 held in Berlin, Germany on July 11th at the Brandenburg Gate. It is a biennial event that was started in 2003 to showcase the talents of the Paralympic athletes to the general public. So make sure to check out the page to read more about this exciting event.

Also on the horizon is the 20th Anniversary celebration of the International Paralympic Committee (IPC). This will take place at the beginning of September and will also mark the 10th Anniversary of the IPC being located here in Bonn. So as you can see, it is an exciting time to be involved is Paralympic sports. Make sure to keep following as I will try to come up with some interesting topics to read about, as well as highlight the upcoming events! Cheers!
