Arriving in PyeongChang for 2018 Paralympic Games

We boarded buses for transport to PyeongChang, new accommodations and specific duty assignments. I will be working in the Olympic Stadium with athlete ceremonies. It's been snowing heavily, requiring help from Korean military and contractors to remove accumulation.

Many volunteers are assigned to athlete and spectator support in the Olympic Stadium and surrounds. We are assigned to Functional Areas with local managers, who give daily job duties.



We join for communal meals with hundreds of Korean soldiers, electrical contractors, representatives of broadcast media, performers, security guards, sponsors and others. I am impressed by the efficiency of chosen vendors!

Only a short time before Opening Ceremonies on 9th. Paralympians, children from local schools, cheerleaders, traditional and K-Pop singers, medics and volunteers practice their roles for the Ceremonies. All feel the excitement of hosting visitors from across the Globe!

Be sure to dress warmly, layering garments with a waterproof outer shell.
