OLYMPIC TOWN

Presented by Duke Energy

Olympic Town was created to give athletes, partners, coaches and family members a place to relax and have fun in between their sporting events. All booths are made available free of charge (except the Souvenir Kiosk) thanks to the generosity of our many corporate, civic, and service groups that donate their time, efforts, and money. Here you will find entertainment, safety, and other educational exhibits, food, drinks, and a variety of different crafts, games and activities for everyone to enjoy.
