ActNow BC wants to hear what your B.C. community is doing to get in the spirit of the 2010 Games. Tell us how individuals and organizations in your community are making a difference by supporting sport, healthy living, sustainable development and, of course, the Olympic and Paralympic Games. Every community in B.C. is eligible to win great prizes.
Every B.C. community has its own GamesTown 2010 web address awaiting your input. Schools can upload their stories, photos and YouTube video clips to your community’s GamesTown 2010 page, showing everyone how your community embodies healthy living and the spirit of the Games, and why it deserves the title of GamesTown 2010. |
There are some exciting prizes to be won by participating communities as part of GamesTown 2010. In January 2010, three B.C. communities will be named the Gold, Silver and Bronze medal winners of GamesTown 2010. They will receive cash awards of $100,000, $50,000 and $25,000, respectively, to put towards sport or healthy living facility improvements in their community. During the competition, there are also many other great prizes to be won, including tickets to the 2010 Winter Games!
