Firstly, some prizes to hand out!
Congratulations to Curtis C., Anna T., Jessica J., and Elissa W., for your awesome contest entries! They were all such great entries that we’ve decided on a 4-way tie!
Now just to remind you, this blog began 2 months ago. The first post was written January 20 and there were just 2 views that day. Announcements were made, links were posted on Facebook, and by the end of the week there were 93 views. Since then the blog has exploded with over 2000 views one week and an average of over 100 views each day! 71 posts from our excellent moderator team and 460 comments from you our awesome and much appreciated blog followers! Business cards were printed, posters were posted and over $1500 of Olympic and Paralympic Prizes were given away!
There have been a lot of ups and downs throughout the Winter Games and this blog. There were lots of concerns when we first started up this blog but the team rose to the challenge and met them! Doris, Jessie, Bianca, Jane Lynn, Liz, and Sam have all done an excellent job covering the games from their points of view. After all has been said and done, it really is all about the experience. The experiences shared by the moderators and the experiences shared through all your great comments. This blog truly enhanced my Vancouver 2010 experience and I hope it did the same for you!
This is the last post of this blog but that doesn’t mean you can’t comment! We’ve loved reading your thoughts and opinions and we’d love to see some more as the blog comes to a close! You’ve heard the closing thoughts of our moderator team, so please share with us yours! Let us know what you think, for old time’s sake!!
It has been a pleasure to work on this blog and I thank you all for helping make it such a great 2010 Student Experience (I just had to throw that in somewhere!)

This was a great way to enjoy and celebrate the Vancouver 2010 Olympics and Paralympics! Big props should be given to the mastermind(s) behind this entire project/blog. I am so glad I make the decision to go the information meeting during lunch during one of the promotion days. What a way to interact with other Olympics/Paralympics fans. This blog was a great way to express our thoughts about the great winter games! Congratulations on the over 2000 views and over 460 comments. Thank you very much for the Olympics and Paralympics Prizes! They were great additions to this awesome blog! For old times sake….. GO CANADA GO! WOOOO! Let make this the best exit ever! Hope Everyone Can Keep Posting!
