Olympic Gold Medalist in Figure Skating Sarah Hughes (Picture above with Rowdy Gaines) took to the ice with some local students from NYC. You can check out my interivew with her at: http://timmorehouse.wordpress.com/2009/11/05/tim-morehouse-interviews-olympic-gold-medalist-sarah-hughes-at-100-days-to-vancouver/

In the video, I goof up and call her a Silver medalist and she makes fun of me! (Yikes! lol)

Teach For America Goes Olympic!

November 6, 2009

While covering the 100 day countdown to the Vancouver Olympic Celebration at Rockefeller Center I was excited to find some familiar faces!

Amongst the hundreds of local children in attendance were severeal current and former Teach For America teachers and their students!

The kids and teachers all got some pretty jazzy Olympic gear and the students got to sign autographs, meet many Olympians and ice skate! 

Now Teach For America does an ice skating event in Central Park, but I think this one might be hard to top with Olympic Gold Medalist Sarah Hughes skating with them!

Kids from Mott Hall 3 and various other schools were there! Such a perfect day.  The Olympics and TFA! :)
