GREEK OLYMPICS

Think you know all about the Olympics? Well, CALLIOPE ® is sure you know lots, but you may be surprised to find out there's much you don't know. So, in anticipation of the 2008 Games, here's a nifty guide. You'll meet ancient Greek Olympic heroes and learn how their fans treated them. You'll read, too, of a mother who so wanted to see her son perform that she broke the law barring women from attending the games. And, you'll have a press pass that will get you into the athletes' training areas and right on site for each event. Then, to help you in 2008, CALLIOPE ® will bring you up-to-date on just how today's games imitate and emulate those hosted by the ancient Greeks.
