Olympics Panel
Are you an Olympian? Are you a coach or work
with Olympians and the Olympics in some avenue? Or do you aspire to
be an Olympian or service provider? Or how about being a fan of the
Olympics? This panel is for you and will focus on your issues.
Though the topic will cross over into high school, collegiate,
women, professional, the issues that face the Olympics and Olympians
are very unique and this panel will detail those specific
discussions.
In this panel, gay and lesbian Olympians tell
their remarkable stories of success - overcoming all obstacles, and
succeeding despite the odds. The panelists will share their
philosophies on how to be successful in sport and in life in the
face of widespread cultural homophobia.
Speakers:
-
Mark Tewksbury, Canadian
Olympian and gold medal winner in the 100-meter backstroke at the 1992 Summer
Olympics in Barcelona, former member of the International Olympics Committee

Committee
