Squaw Valley 50th Anniversary
Celebration
January 8-16, 2010
From the opening ceremonies in the Squaw Valley ice arena, to the Nordic
ski trails in Tahoma on Lake Tahoe’s West Shore, and throughout
the week-long competitions and nightly shows in the Olympic Village, to
the last hockey game, athletes and spectators enjoyed one of the most
memorable Olympics on record.
To celebrate this historic event, the Olympic Heritage Committee of the
Squaw Valley Ski Museum Foundation has invited all 1960 athletes to a
week of events being held January 8-17 in Squaw Valley and North Lake
Tahoe. They are hoping that all local and national Olympians will come
to Squaw to participate in the activities described below:
