2014 Sochi Winter Olympics Polar Bear Mascot
Posted by: | CommentsThe Olympics Facebook page just posted this super cute photo of one of the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympic Games mascots in stuffed animal format – isn’t the White Par Bear a cutie? It almost makes me want snow… not.
Here is the illustration of the three main mascots for the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympic Games – White Polar Bear, Leopard and Hare. I think the leopard definitely has the most personality and looks like an athlete.
Are you ready to start thinking about the Winter Olympics yet? They will be held February 7-23, 2014 so they are really not that far off!

Foot Locker Scholar Athletes Opportunity
Posted by: | CommentsAre you a student athlete who wants to win $20,000 towards your college education? Or are you a coach or official that knows a student athlete who deserves to be rewarded? Visit the Foot Locker Scholar Athlete page at DoSomething.org for details.
From the website: The Foot Locker Scholar Athletes program honors athletes for demonstrating excellence in school, on their sports team, and in their communities. This is an award where we celebrate YOU-not necessarily because you scored the winning touchdown or goal-but because sports have helped you grow into a strong leader in your community.
I’m sure you know an athlete that has strong leadership skills on and off the field! And they have 20 of the scholarships to give out. Nominate someone today.
