🏅OPENING CEREMONIES🏅

[#1]

Hello, Atlympians near and far! 

This Friday, July 23rd, marks the start of the Community Atlympics (get excited)!! 

To celebrate, we'll be hopping on a casual Zoom to really get into the Atlympic spirit. Here's the loose agenda:

• Quick intros! Who you are, what your favorite sport is
• Unveiling the Atlympic Challenges
• Questions, if there are any! 
• Fun Atlympic themed quiz, if we have time :) 

If you're feeling festive:

• Change your Zoom background to the Atlympic Zoom background or your country's flag
• Wear your sports gear (I am considering wearing my swim cap and goggles) 
• Bring your favorite sport's drink to sip on 

We know that Atlympians are a global bunch and that not everyone can make Opening Ceremonies - we will record and post it for those who can't attend! 

• Opening Ceremonies: 10-10:30 AM PST (5:00-5:30 PM UTC)

If you want to attend opening ceremonies (and get a cal reminder), comment below!

Hope to see you there,

Bridget + Isha
