The Olympics Are Coming!

The 2010 Winter Olympics, officially known as the XXI Olympic Winter Games or the 21st Winter Olympics, will be held on February 12–28, 2010, in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, with some events held in the resort town of Whistler and Richmond nearby.

The 2010 Winter Olympics will be the third Olympics hosted by Canada, and the first by the province of British Columbia. Previously, Canada was home to the 1976 Summer Olympics in Montreal, Quebec and the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary, Alberta.

Every day until the Olympics start, I will be highlighting an Olympic event here, including videos to give you an idea what each sport s like. Come back to check them out while we wait for the Opening Ceremonies to begin!
