2008 Beijing Olympics - Qingdao Volunteers Committee 

 

Mission & Goals 

The mission of the 2008 Olympics Committee of the Long Beach-Qingdao Association is to assist our Sister City, Qingdao, in successfully hosting the Sailing Regatta events associated with the 2008 Olympics to be held in Beijing, China.  It is anticipated that such assistance will center on the recruitment, training, and management of volunteers. Our goals are to achieve the following:

  • Development of a training program to share how Long Beach hosted the sailing events of the 1984 Olympics, and subsequent sailing competitions such as the annual Congressional Cup, Trans-Pacific Race, etc., as well as general guidance on volunteer management;

  • Delivery of that training program to the Qingdao Olympics Volunteer Committee in person via a small group of experts from Long Beach;

  • Consultation as needed and requested by the Qingdao Olympics Volunteer Committee;

  • Possible recruitment of volunteers to assist in the implementation of the 2006 and 2007 pre-Olympics regattas in Qingdao;

  • Possible volunteer team to assist in the implementation of the 2008 Olympics Sailing Regatta itself;

  • Other helpful activities as requested by the Qingdao Olympics Committee.

  • Specific areas of training including:

    • Organization of sports competition;
    • management of the sports stadium;
    • management, maintenance, and operation of the harbour;
    • organization of the service work (including the accommodation, transportation, food & drink arrangement, etc.)
    • management of the sports arena;
    • organization and management of Olympic volunteers;
    • protocol work of the Sailing Regatta;
    • media service of the Sailing Regatta.
