Touring Olympia: Exposition Park

As part of the Anytime, Anyplace symposium at Pasadena City College (March 14, 2008), the Travel Office and Sarah Ross led a tour of Exposition Park, set in a fictional near future of 2030. The collapse of the Olympic Games occurred in Los Angeles in 2020, just as the city was set to become Olympia for a third time, but was defeated by a global athlete walkout in the face of global economic and political depression. The tour concluded with a reading of "Ode to Sport", a poem written by the "Father of the Modern Olympic Games," Pierre de Coubertin and a reenactment of the last torch lighting ceremony.
