Celebrating the Olympic Movement.
Olympic Day.
Be Part of the Tradition in St. Louis.As part of its ongoing effort to raise the profile and impact of St. Louis’ status as an Olympic city, the St. Louis Sports Commission has started a tradition in which area youth will run the Olympic Stadium track with Jackie Joyner-Kersee and other Olympians every Olympic Day on June 21.
The event connects to St. Louis’ Olympic legacy as host of the 1904 Summer Games and the birthplace of the Olympics in America. It also gives St. Louisans a chance to participate in the worldwide celebration of Olympic Day, created by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to commemorate the birth of the modern Olympic Games on June 23, 1894.
Your organization can be part of St. Louis’ annual Olympic Day Celebration each June . To find out how you can participate, click the button below. Thank you for supporting the Olympic Movement!
