Wow, February is a busy month in 2010!  In addition to being Black History Month, and the date of the official holiday celebrating United States presidents, the Olympic Games are set to open on February 12.

If you're preparing lesson plans or programming around the Winter Olympic Games in Vancouver, be sure to take a look at the official Olympic Museum online at http://www.olympic.org/en/content/Olympic-Museum/.  Virtual exhibits include "The Spirit of Vancouver 2010" and "Champion in the Mind."  The website also includes an interactive map, an RSS feed of Olympic news, and a virtual tour fo the physical museum.

The museum's website is part of the official Olympic movement Web presence.  Tabs on the top of the page link to the games, athletes, and even youth olympic games.  The organization's website offers a single, reliable source of information about the international games.  There is also a link to the official Winter Games 2010 in Vancouver (http://www.olympic.org/en/content/Olympic-Games/All-Future-Olympic-Games/Winter/Vancouver-2010/).
