2009 Special Olympics World Winter Games is Live
2009 February 8
We are live!
I’m here in Boise, Idaho, as our team of about 150 students and coaches associated with the University of North Carolina, University of Miami and Boise State University is out shooting and producing video for the entire Special Olympics. Every day, we’ll feature new documentary stories on teams and athletes from around the world, plus coverage of every single event.
Our documentaries will be distributed by networks including ESPN, Versus and NBC’s Universal Sports. All documentaries and daily event coverage will be added to our site on a daily basis and will be searchable by athlete names, nationality, date, sport, etc.
Opening Ceremonies were on Saturday and events start on Monday, so stay tuned!

Hi I was interviewed in Boise at the S.O. winter Games. Matt & Hannah did a taped interview. It was on the web site and is not anymore. It was taped at the rink along with my coach Bev Callsen & Julie also my Mom ,Connie Cooke.I am a level 6 Figure Skater from Kindersley,Sask. Canada. If you can find this interview we would love it send to us.
Thank-you

Hi, Coralee. Thanks for visiting the site!
I’m not sure why your documentary story isn’t showing up on your athlete page at live.specialolympics.org. I’ll look into it.
In the meantime, your documentary was featured in our day-two highlights reel. You can watch it here on my blog. Your story starts at about 7:00.
Thanks,
Nick
